minimalist rooftop pavilion with sea views

Banks Road

A minimalist glass rooftop extension in Sandbanks.
Location Sandbanks, Poole
Status Built
Use Residential
Client Graham Phillips

This pavilion in collaboration with Graham Phillips is unified under a single “floating” roof plane. Two glass sunrooms on top of this Art Deco apartment block in Poole create simple, contemplative spaces. These enjoy stunning far-reaching Dorset coastline and harbour views.

This subservient, steel-frame addition perches lightly over the existing concrete structure and is designed to subtly reflect its Art Deco context in a sympathetic and minimalist manner.
