convertible-houseI’ve seen come cool things in life, but I must admit I’ve never seen a “convertible” house before.

A couple in England, who had never built a house before, decided to move out to the country and use their imagination and capital to build one of the most unique houses on the planet. The top instruction to their architect was, “we are prepared to be radical”.

The brief was simple: to build a house to retire to in order to grow food, entertain and enjoy the East Anglia landscape. The outcome was as unconventional as they come. A structure that has the ability to vary or connect the overall building’s composition and character according to season, weather or simply a desire to delight. Wallpaper* took a trip to the site to capture the physical phenomenon in the only medium that serves it justice – film.
