Stones Throw Residence / Mole Architects
Stone's Throw is an upgrade and extension to a single-story holiday house in Aldeburgh on the Suffolk coast, a stone's throw from the sea. The existing house was poorly arranged, with living space tucked into one end and the sunny end of the site dominated by a double garage. The new house now looks back to the sea from a new space towards the sea, from a dramatic room filled with light and views. The high ceiling is broken part way by a triangular rooflight and an angled column that separates the main dining and kitchen from the elevated living space beyond. Central to the space is a block of marble, its color, and pattern reminiscent of a Maggie Hambling painting of the sea, which sits on a floor of end grain woodblock. The old bungalow has been upgraded and transformed into a new light-filled house: a grand house on a modest scale.
