Studio Bark’s rigorous environmental ethos first came into the public eye when the Code 6 Periscope House featured on Channel 4’s Grand Designs.
The home won permission through Paragraph 55 (now Para 79) of the National Planning Policy Framework. The policy requires new countryside homes to meet exacting standards of innovation and quality. Studio Bark has gained a reputation as a leading practice in this field. Periscope House was the first Code Level 6 building designed and built in the UK to gain planning permission through this policy.
