Pool House Surrey Hills
A Countryside Retreat in the Surrey Hills
Nestled within the scenic landscape of the Surrey Hills, Pool House represents a refined collaboration between architecture and nature. Acting as residential architects and project managers, Morph Design Studio transformed the exterior of this elegant country home to better connect it with its surroundings. The project’s focus was to enhance the existing building through subtle yet impactful architectural design, strengthening its relationship with the garden, pool, and woodland beyond.
Collaboration and Design Coordination
The success of Pool House, Surrey Hills was built on collaboration. Working closely with a renowned landscape designer, our architects developed detailed technical drawings that aligned the house’s external form with the surrounding landscape. Acting as planning approval architects, we ensured that every proposal complemented Surrey Hills conservation principles and local planning requirements. The process highlighted our ability to coordinate architecture and landscape design seamlessly, creating a balanced, cohesive outcome.
Enhancing the Property’s Architectural Character
Our design approach aimed to enhance the home’s character while maintaining its timeless countryside charm. Acting as experienced residential architects, we refined the façade, improved proportions, and integrated natural materials that resonate with the woodland setting. Stone, timber, and neutral tones were carefully selected to ensure visual harmony and durability. These elements combine to give Pool House a sense of permanence and authenticity, a home that sits naturally within the Surrey countryside.
Landscape and Architectural Integration
The transformation celebrates the close relationship between indoor and outdoor living. Full-height glazing and refined detailing open the home to its surrounding gardens, terraces, and pool area. As extension architects, we worked alongside the landscape team to position terraces and walkways that align with the building’s geometry. The result is a home where boundaries between architecture and landscape dissolve, allowing natural light, texture, and views to shape the experience of every space.
Precision through Technical Design
Behind the visual simplicity of Pool House lies a framework of precise technical drawing and building project management. Our architects ensured that every material junction, drainage detail, and structural interface was coordinated to support the design intent. By maintaining open communication with the landscape designer, contractors, and consultants, we achieved a high standard of construction quality. This level of technical coordination is fundamental to Morph Design Studio’s process, ensuring that every project is delivered with accuracy and care.
A Home in Harmony with Nature
Pool House, Surrey Hills captures Morph Design Studio’s philosophy that good architecture is shaped by its environment. Through thoughtful architectural design and collaboration, we created a home that feels rooted in its setting yet refined in execution. The transformation enhances both visual appeal and functionality, reflecting the studio’s expertise in blending contemporary design with natural beauty. As residential architects in the Surrey Hills, we continue to create spaces that celebrate light, landscape, and craftsmanship in perfect balance.
