The late Simon Ungers (with Tom Kinslow) designed this retreat on a 40-acre wooded site for for an aspiring writer and his 10,000-book collection. The library peeks over the treetops symbolizing the clients lofty aspirations whilst the living spaces contained in the base of the house is grounded into the hillside.
The construction sequencing, transportation to site and assembly methods must have been fascinating on this project - worthy of a book.
