Flex House is our idea for a highly adaptable ‘home for life,’ considering families' changing occupancies and lifestyle requirements over time. It offers a high level of sustainability, minimising energy, resource use and utility bills, during the entire lifespan of the house and its design is based on biophilic principles, maintaining a close physical connection between the interiors and the outdoor natural environment.

Our design is a flexible 4-5 bed 3-storey energy efficient family home arranged around an enclosed, private courtyard with garden terraces on all levels and an integrated garage/store. Indoor/outdoor living is encouraged by large sliding/folding doors, fully integrating the living spaces with gardens. If required, the house can flex into two separate homes; a fully accessible barrier-free 1-bed ground floor courtyard flat, with a 2-3 bed duplex family home over with the option of separate entrances.
