Grand Designs Magazine Amphibious House Feature Out Now

November’s issue of Grand Designs Magazine is on the shelves now, featuring the story of the UK’s first Amphibious House, designed by BACA architects.

The article tells the clients’ story from planning through to construction of the special amphibious design and recalls the floods of 2014 which held up construction.

The success of the design of the house, as well as its pioneering flood-resilient nature, is captured in the stunning photography accompanying the article.

This forward-thinking project will hopefully form the benchmark for other amphibious properties around the country as people seek to protect their homes from flooding.

Further details can be found on p61-67 of November’s Grand Designs Magazine.
