A multi-purpose boathouse. The main aim was to integrate it into its surroundings and to use walls and roofs as a wrap-around and decorative, edible garden. The asymmetrical pitch roof gives space to a higher area that can be used as a gym and workshop and a lower area where two boats can be stored above one another. The design of the timber Oak cladding forms a link to the nearby main house.
