TOWNHOUSE BENETT  The three-storey house, known as House Benett, is situated on the edge of London and is surrounded by greenery in a quiet residential street. The front facing rooms and the oak wooden entrance reflect the buildings eco credentials. We began working on plans for the house in 2012. A key aspect of the brief was to ensure a strong connection with the area's existing architectural style. After the planning consent was granted, the house was built at Baufritz´s state of the art factory in Germany, using low-carbon construction processes, sustainable timber and other biodegradable building materials, before being shipped to the UK for assembly in 2014. House Benett boasts 4230 sq ft/ 393 sqm of modern living space spread over three floors. The wooden timber construct makes the need for structural steel redundant. Grey window frames, dark clay roof tiles and a porch roof create a contemporary look that blends in with the natural surroundings.
