Overlooking the Gower Peninsula, Silver House provides a deeply personalized and contextual home for a family relocating from London to find peace in the countryside. Drawing on this remote coastal setting, the design embraces a distinct atmosphere at each level, as the interiors are positioned to make the most of the shifting coastal light throughout the day. On the ground floor, a robust, heavy material palette provides protection from the elements – echoing the local, medieval tradition of dry-stone walling – while sharply defined portal windows frame sea views. Beneath a bold roof form, timber construction on the upper floors reference nearby agricultural buildings.
