Bridge HouseA House Spanning a Courtyard Garden

Bridge House is a 9 bedroom home located in the Leeward area of Providenciales, Turks and Caicos Islands. Siting on the Leeward Canals, this design has sought to create a 'bridge' over the verdant gardens and pools that will define the landscaping of the site.

Entry into the home is via an inner courtyard, through a large timber pivot door. On entering, we have ensured that the outer wings of the property are splayed to maximise the impact of the waterfrontage on the daily use of the home.

The 'bridge' element of level 2 spans 40' between these outer wings. It is designed to work like a structural 'truss', with the expressed frame containing the two master bedrooms and their terraces.

Our ambition is for the living/kitchen/dining space to feel fully part of the courtyard garden. All sliders pocket into thick stone walls to ensure an uninhibited visual connection between front and back gardens, and in order to maximise the feeling of living in the landscape.
