Torispardon is a new build scottish cottage in the Central Highlands, designed by Stuart Archer & Liz Marinko. The house has an area of 300 sqm.

Description by Stuart Archer & Liz Marinko: Torispardon is a new build private house in the Central Highlands, nestled on a hillside with panoramic views of the Cairngorm Mountains and the Spey Valley.

It is formed of three elements; the Cottage which accommodates guests and can be ‘shut off’ when not required, the timber Link which houses the main entrance, utility and kitchen, and the Steading which has the master suite and living areas. Frameless glass elements are employed to visually separate the three buildings, whilst allowing them to physically interact.

 The project is sensitive to its origins and context, the traditional vernacular of the Cottage and Steading echo the footprint, materiality and massing of the original buildings which were on the site, whilst the contemporary timber clad Link is agricultural in form and deliberately subservient to the adjacent buildings. The Steading is sunk partially in the ground, cutting into the land behind as it rises so that it appears to sit in the landscape that surrounds it. Visit Torispardon website

Reddish Residence / Sparano + Mooney Architecture

The Reddish residence responds to the site by acting as a moderator between interior spaces and the landscape. Arcades, overhangs, courtyards and site walls articulate that relationship. An arcade marked by a gesture to the street bisects an entry courtyard.

Modern Mexican Home Celebrates Indoor-Outdoor Lifestyle

The project composition was achieved through a modulation that links interior and exterior spaces through different entrances, surrounding every façade with garden or terrace. The public areas of this modern Mexican home have been designed in the back to take advantage of the broad views. Private areas were arranged in front to exploit and enjoy the sunlight.
