MORIKO & KOMOREBI | CANFORD CLIFFS, DORSET

Linked detached homes designed to appear as a single residence.

 

This pair of linked detached luxury high end homes occupies a stunning tree lined plot in Canford Cliffs, Poole. Each property is unique and has been specifically designed and tailored to the requirements of the purchasers and future occupiers of both plots. Both sets of occupiers had different design briefs and aspirations for the internal layouts and we have created different properties with a unified design language. Key to the success of the appearance was to create a development that resembled a single dwelling. This was necessary to respond to the sites previous planning history where previous architects had failed to gain a consent for 2 homes.

The design concept behind the visual aesthetic was to create a very simple horizontal box that projects and seems to float over a wall below clad in burnt timber. The buildings sit on a slope and include three stories to the rear that look over private woodlands. The interiors include a mix of double and single height light filled volumes.
