Architects Catherine Roberts and Steven Harris had always wanted to put their professional ideas into practice and build their own dream home. Their brief was simple: ample space and high energy efficiency. For them, self-building was an opportunity for experimentation; allowing inspiration and imaginative ideas to evolve as they designed.

Batts Hall is a super prime country house located on a green belt site in Warwickshire that takes inspiration from Arts and Crafts architecture. The inspirational self build reflects tradition at the same time as boasting sustainable and energy efficient qualities.
