A retreat under the roof · comfort concept
Study concept of a room under the roof. A design intention for exploring comfort and junctions, not completed work.
The project
Study concept · not completed work. A room under the roof can keep traditional materials and proportions while an improvement in comfort is studied. This visual proposal sets out a reading nook with a continuous mineral finish, wood and filtered light.
What would need studying in a real home
- Existing roof layers, continuity of insulation and condition of supports.
- Headroom after the work and junctions with walls and window.
- Solar protection, air renewal and behaviour with regard to moisture.
- Compatibility of materials and finishes with the original substrate.
The image doesn’t demonstrate a thickness, a construction system or energy savings. The work is defined after reviewing the property.
