Al-Jawad Pike have been commissioned to design a new-build single family dwelling for a young couple in North London. The client is also a specialist concrete contractor and so this project has offered the rare opportunity to construct the building in in-situ fair-faced concrete. 

The main proportions and roof silhouette of the house respect the context and local vernacular, however, it distinguishes itself through its materiality and details. These elements combine to express the tectonic relationship between the concrete base and the upper volume, which is formed in grey brickwork. Opening window panels and the front door will be constructed in timber to provide further material richness.
