DHV Architects have designed a new build, two bedroom house in the Cotham and Redland Conservation Area in North Bristol. Built on a former car park plot, this flexible home brings light, colour and texture to modern urban living. The heart of the house is a generous, dual aspect kitchen / dining / living room with Crittal-style aluminium doors leading to a private courtyard at the rear. The paint colour, flooring, kitchen units and tiling work together to create a pared-back, tranquil feel.
