1.0 Design Statement
1.1
Rooflights to Front Elevation
The roof lights are located over the breakfast
table in the kitchen to create a light breakfast
room.
There will be three rooflights.
1.2
Rooflights to Rear Elevation
The roof lights are located over the staircase
to bring light to the ground floor circulation
space.
There will be three rooflights.
1.3
Windows to sides of Front Porch
The addition of two small windows to either side
of the porch is to let light into the porch and
the immediate hallway.
1.4
Windows to South Elevation
The windows in the first-floor lounge have been
increased to double doors with the same
proportions as the windows, the proportions
typical of a Manx rural building, and a Juliet
balcony to prevent falling.
The two ground floor windows have been omitted
as they didn’t look right below the larger
double doors.
1.5
Additional Window to West Elevation
The addition of a window in the western
elevation is to replace one of the windows
omitted on the south elevation at ground floor.

1.6
Wall in Place of Railing to Rear Terrace
The decision to change the railings to a wall
was due to ease of detailing the waterproofing
and for ease of maintenance. It wasn’t felt that
the railings added anything to the aesthetics of
the project.
1.7
Office Door on North Elevation Recessed
The door to the office has been recessed to
allow for the passage of a rainwater pipe from
the terrace above.
