Project Featured on Nov 19, 2017
Dungeness Beach in Kent is a classic example of 'Non Plan' and the houses that populate the beach have developed through improvisation and bodge. The scheme develops this tradition in a way that responds to the drama and harshness of the landscape.
The new house incorporates a 19th-century railway carriage that formed the basis of the original, much smaller, house. It forms the centre point of the main living area and accommodates the kitchen.
A fully-glazed South elevation gives views out over the Channel and a series of smaller slot windows on the other elevations give focused views of the adjacent lighthouse, coastguard station and nuclear power station.
The sloping roof deck acts as an observation platform with extraordinary 360 degree views of the beach and the sea. The plan incorporates two courtyards to provide shelter from the constant wind.
Environmental control is achieved through a combination of passive solar gain, cross ventilation and a wind turbine.
