Simply rational: Tilbrook House, Petersfield, Hampshire

Article Abstract:

Architect Nev Churcher was responsible for the design of Tilbrook House, an area social services facility in Petersfield, England. Churcher focused on simplicity, both in detailing and in the choice of material. He conceived the building as an inhabited wall, with the garden elevation being dominated by the brickwork of the ground-floor offices. He chose multi-red stocks for facing bricks, with brick and a half being the basis for all the construction.
