Meet the architect… The Close in Llangrove We caught up with Mark Powles, Director of RRA Architects who worked on The Close with Freeman Homes to find out more about the concept behind the design. Mark, what’s your aim when designing a home? There are two areas really, the house and the home. Firstly there is the practical – does the brief require two bedrooms? A garage? And this is the house. Then there’s the concept, the feel and the personality of the building you design to suit the space. Both are equally important for the house to become a home. How did you apply this to The Close? The practical requirements were rather straightforward really. It was essential that the properties would be executive 4 bedroom homes finished to a high standard appropriate for the quality expected of a Freeman Home. This included a contemporary feel whilst using natural materials in keeping with a village environment; a large open plan ground floor leasing to outdoor space through high performance bi-folding doors. It’s kind of a fusion of comfort and contemporary convenience. Another key aspect to the whole scheme is the focus on low maintenance throughout the property with quality details such as colour-through render, pressure treated timber cladding and powder-coated aluminium windows all requiring virtually zero maintenance. Naturally the houses are beautifully appointed throughout giving the ‘wow’ factor you expect. Is being eco-friendly important in the market place? Yes, definitely. Not just the market place, environmental issues are also important to both Freeman Homes and RRA Architects. That’s why The Close properties demonstrate an energy efficiency that goes beyond standard building regulations. Each property is exceptionally well-insulated and has an air-source heat pump to run the heating and hot water. Alongside this is a wood burner to provide heat and a homely feel for a welcoming ambience. Who would the homes at The Close be ideal for? They’d suit anyone really but with the large open plan living area for entertaining, generous room sizes for visitors, easy to manage gardens and the homes being low maintenance means the houses at The Close are ideal for those looking to downsize for hassle free living.
