Architectural studio Surman Weston designs a Geometric Pool House located in the lush gardens of a home in the UK's Surrey area. It rises on top of a concrete plinth that overlooks the forests that surround the home. It is made by landscape designer Matthew Childs, who helps with finding a site in the gardens complete with seating and terraces.
The studio explains that "The client commissioned to project out of a wish to make greater use of the south-facing rear garden, and create new spaces for rest, exercise and socialising. A bold geometric insertion into nature, the pool house acts as a counterpoint to the setting, a combination of mature woodland and a landscaped garden featuring exposed Westmorland stone and organically shaped ponds."
