building that could really take advantage of the truly spectacular view that overlooks Vazon Bay. ”In the original bungalow the best view that the building could offer came from the utility room so the brief was to make better use of the structure. ”In order to do this we incorporated a lot of glass. The glazing was specifically designed so that no matter where you are in the building, you’re always drawn back to the view. That’s what makes this project so special.”
Les Bardeaux
Les Bardeaux is a four-bedroom open- plan family home that is set within a small woodland area on the south coast of Guernsey. The design of the building draws upon the local architecture and out of all three of BAS Mooarc’s shortlisted projects it is the most traditional in terms of design and construction. Les Bardeaux was built to comply with 2016 Building Regulations and Code for Sustainable Homes Level 5 and features high levels of insulation, timber cladding
and blockwork walls.
Additional features include polished concrete floors, an air source heat pump and a pitched roof. As none of the internal
partitions
on Les Bardeaux are load-bearing, the design of the building also allows for future alterations if necessary. Main contractor for the Les Bardeaux project was Mark Le Prevost and the structural engineer was Dorey Lyle & Ashman. Nicky Burridge of NB Lighting Design was once again the lighting designer on the project. Jamie Falla said: ”Out of all three projects that have been shortlisted for the Guernsey Design Awards, Les Bardeaux is a much softer and more traditional approach to Guernsey architecture and people have really seemed to warm to it. ”We’ve
created open-plan spaces
inside the building so that the building can continue to adapt to changes in people’s lifestyles and this is a perfect example of a building design that will last a lifetime.”
