01 The brief
A carefully planned roofing project built around the property, location and brief.
Challenge
This Dover Road property in Branksome Park called for a roof that would retain its classic aesthetic while improving thermal performance. The brief brings together a traditional clay tile finish and a modern insulation upgrade, preserving the character of the home while addressing energy efficiency and condensation risk.
Solution
Over 30,000 handmade Keymer clay tiles are being laid across the roof.
