The brief

The architects wanted the lodge to read as if it had always belonged to the hillside — charred timber against granite and heather, warm interiors glowing through the Scottish dusk.

We built the site from survey data and modelled the surrounding moor so the house could be lit through a full day cycle. The hero frame — the lodge at blue hour — went on to anchor the entire sales campaign, while the interior sets let buyers walk the pitched-ceiling living space long before completion. A short animation stitched the approach, the threshold and the fireside together into one continuous, unhurried move.
