The design was for 'a beautiful house' for a family of seven, overlooking a lake to replace an existing building on on a former golfcourse in Hertfordshire.
Our inspiration for where the beauty might come from was taken from the verse in Leonard Cohen's Anthem:
"Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in”
