Edgley, the director of Edgley Designs, created a Pear Tree House\u00a0for the\u00a0site of a Victorian orchard in Dulwich, in the London\u00a0Borough of Southwark. To do that, he split the house in tow sections with a courtyard in the middle containing a remaining fruit tree. \u201cThe house has been built around this tree, creating an internal courtyard that brings light and air to the centre of the plan, while turning the house inward to remain private from the surrounding terraced houses\u201d.<\/p>\n

At the ground level, you can find a primary living space, and the family bedroom and bathroom\u00a0from a guest suite and study at the upper level.\u00a0Each block is made from a combination of woodgrain-imprinted concrete and glass.\u00a0The larch formwork used to create these sections of textured-concrete wall is reused as cladding for the timber-framed upper storeys.<\/p>\n

Linking the tow blocks, the architect, used\u00a0slender columns, glazed walls and a turf roof, with a stunning view for the pear tree. Using\u00a0columns, and the vertical pieces of timber and aluminum used to frame the glazing throughout, Edgley intended to\u00a0replicate the experience of looking through the tree trunks in a\u00a0forest or orchard.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe wanted to preserve the character of the site and evoke its history through the building, which has been designed to blend into its wooded backland context,\u201d, said the architect. \u201cTo this end there is a simple aesthetic concept to emphasise the vertical articulation of the building, with views through the building defined by slender vertical elements that echo the experience of looking through trees\u201d.<\/p>\n

While the board-marked concrete is left exposed across the walls of the interior, the floors are polished smooth.\u00a0The spaces are fitted with bespoke joinery made from oak veeneer plywood and brass that add warmth to the otherwise grey rooms.<\/p>\n
