This private house is situated in a spectacular location on the cliffs overlooking the River Exe.
To achieve open living space without obscuring views the roof cantilevers from six central slender steel columns. These posts are anchored into the foundations to resist uplifts on the roof from strong cliff-top winds.
Hardwood balconies, screens and balustrades are carefully detailed to resist the marine environment.
