Zero Carbon House, Findhorn. Moray Design Award 2008 The internal arrangement of the house was designed around a stair located centrally and comprising two straight flights and a curved half landing. The curved wall of the stair landing is then reflected in the adjacent bathrooms and bedrooms forming a strong spatial design feature to what is a small simple house.

Built for an outgoing young family, the design of this project was a collaboration form the outset. The Start family run their own business restoring clockwork memorabilia and as a result have a large and varied collection of artefacts for which the internal spaces were designed.

A 4 bedroom farmhouse for a young family, on an exposed site overlooking the vale of Moray.
