Initial sketch by Charlie Palmer
The house has a curved wall comprised of french windows, which look up into the unspoilt valley. These can be opened in the summer and although the drawing doesnt show it, there is a varanda outside for a spot of chilling, barbeques and looking down over the vineyard and waterfall.
The kitchen and bathroom are at the other end of the house and the bathroom has composting toilets and features the bed rock in its design. In the centre is a woodburner, which is used for both cooking and heating the house. A spiral stair case takes us upstairs where there are two twin bedrooms and the master bedroom which also looks up the valley.
The house is entered on the second floor and by the doorway is going to be the all necessary hot tub.
