A life long dream was to design and build a new house on a green field plot and this web site is dedicated to that dream. Here you will be able to see the planning and construction drawings together with photographs showing site updates.

This new house is important as it is effectively a study in what Marik Stephens feels is important in rural house design; that is:

* Building in context

* A uniqueness in its setting

* Contemporary design and construction

* A sustainable and eco-friendly architecture

The innovative and thermally efficient house at Roosky has a number of unique features that have been developed by the practice, thes include:
