Western Design Architects designed the New Road residence in Lower Bryanston, Dorset, UK. Completed in 2021, the home features a contemporary country style, created to replace an uninhabitable post-WWI property. The residence reflects the character of nearby historic houses with its simple modern vernacular design, utilising timber cladding and a metal roof.

Designed as a trio of interconnected ‘islands’, it harmoniously integrates with the challenging topography. The central island, hosting the main living areas and a chic swimming pool, stands proudly along the ridge’s center. Encircled by two bedroom wings, the Primary Suite overlooks a tranquil valley, while the guest rooms enjoy sunrise and vast ocean vistas.
