The proposed building replaces a derelict structure on the site and aims to represent the apex of gracious living, being full of opulence and grandeur. The design seeks to embody grace and refinement, creating a home that is both timeless and contemporary. Drawing on the enduring language of classical architecture, the concept reinterprets these elements within a modern composition.
The building’s composition exploits the sweeping views across the landscaped gardens, ensuring that the beauty of the surrounding Surrey countryside is an integral part of daily life.
Careful consideration has been given to the estate’s mature trees, many of which have stood for generations. By preserving these natural landmarks, the design reinforces the site’s sense of heritage, grounding the new manor within the historic context of the site.
