The Trask House

The Trask House
“We wanted to build a contemporary house and selected PDM in a ‘beauty contest’ involving several architects. What PDM offered was fresh and innovative ideas and the desire to build the house we really wanted.  We were not disappointed with the result though we can say as with any imaginative project the journey was not always straight or journeyed without going up a few cul-de-sacs. But together with Phil Domville-Musters at PDM we worked our way through the different issues to create a stunning house that is both environmentally sensitive and eminently livable in. Not unexpectedly at the planning stage many locals were wary of a contemporary house being constructed in their midst but the quality of the design and the build, especially the sensitive elements that reflected local proclivities, have won round all but the very stubborn.  Indeed virtually everyday we receive compliments on the house from passers-by.”
