Project details: P Chapman Construction project page
Set high on the cliffs above St Agnes, Trelowen needed extensive structural work, including retaining structures, to sit on its site. Natural stonework ties the house to its setting, with large glazing, a pool terrace above the Atlantic and generous living spaces facing the sea.
