Client:

Private client

Location:

Lake Geneva, Switzerland

Site area:

3.5 hectares

This scheme involved exploring exciting opportunities for a new house and associated garden / estate for a client who had moved from the UK to Switzerland.

Our ideas fully embraced the stunning elevated position of much of the site, which overlooked Lake Geneva, placing the new house to maximum effect while retaining the original cottage at the lower lakeside location. Other features of our proposal included a vineyard, sports pitches, a tennis court, formal pools and lawns, a paddock and woodland gardens; all tied together with carefully aligned axes.
