Contemporary House Design in Scotland

The owner of the house wants a contemporary house design with energy efficient which fully embraces the view and relates to the surrounding context and landscape. Simon Winstanley Architects has designed this Deepstone house in south west Scotland. Here are some architectural principles as design guidelines of Deepstone house:
• The external walls, floor and roof are insulated to a high standard and air infiltration is minimized.
• triple glazed windows with warm edge spacer bars, thermally broken frames and inert gas filled to achieve a whole window u-value of 0.7W/m2K.
• heat pump using a borehole as the ground source for the underfloor heating and hot water system with a closed combustion wood burning stove as back up.
• Micro generation of renewable electricity using roof mounted Photovoltaic Panels.
• Whole house heat recovery ventilation system.
