Architecture design studio Brown & Brown unveils its new design in the form of the Arbor House which is located in Scotland. The space is defined by stone accents that are blended with timber and board-marked concrete. Specifically, it is within a conservation area in Aberdeen within a dipped setting along the northern side of the area.
Co-founder of the studio Andrew Brown tells Dezeen that "The existing coach house had been adapted and converted over the years, which unfortunately removed all original features prior to our clients acquiring the site. The fabric was in a poor state of repair, with the outer stone wall, which we retained, being the part which was in the best condition."
