I truly consider simplicity of the house design as the concept of a contemporary house. Many modern design of the house employ plainness when it comes to the materials used from the interior and it’s exterior. Now we will explore a house design which is built in a rural village of Bedfordshire, England and was designed intended as a family home for a retired couple.

The location of this house is surrounded by hedgerows and mature trees and the borders onto an expanse of Arabic fields. The area of the house is actually divided into different spaces by the house and the hard landscaping that creates interplay between the building, gardens and distant landscape. This house is named as Meadowview. What is exciting about this house will be revealed as you scroll down the page and be amazed with the different images below.

The sun’s rays may provide sustainability to the house every morning.

The function of the natural environment is very effective to make this house appealing. As we can see the designer also considered sustainability as it is well insulated and incorporated with mechanical ventilation with heat recovery to reduce heat losses. There is also a rainwater harvesting tank that supplies water to the garden irrigation. Then we can say that the Platform 5 Architects efficiently designed the Meadowview House that responded the requests of the client or the homeowner as well.
