uw uw 93 Ss 04 5.1 SCHEME 1 THE NEW BUILDINGS The new buildings are placed with the following considerations: © They should not to obstruct the views from the existing buildings. They are sited in stepped terraces below them ¢ They should complement as far as possible the present pattern of planting, roads and pathways. ¢ They should respond to the prevailing wind: either by lying in the lea of the island; or by forming their own wind- breaks They use a similar vocabulary of building materials and forms complementing the existing building rather than contrasting ly with them. Buildings are generally single-storey, ere appropri mn basements to accommodate the slope of the terrain. Masonry walls are clad in local stone (‘blue-bitch’ or coral stone) or finished in white-painted stucco. Roof structures are generally of timber and finished in white-painted metal sheeting Secondary timber structures are of white-painted, or occasionally natural, timber Tauc pitched-roo! structures, raised v the landscape and Buildings are generally integrated witt the vegetation The first and most significant group of new buildings is sited one level (approx 15ft) below the main courtyard complex. A path follows the 40ft contour around from the main arrival point next to the new kitchen on the west side, to the new swimming Pool and recreation complex to the SE. The Recreation Complex This, the largest single building, is sited on the steep slope ding down toward the east beach we have labelled Rock It can be reached either by the new path at the 40ft B le B contour or by a stepped path leading down from the new Belvedere that terminates the extension to the courtyard pergola n 5.16 The pool is 50ft long, sheltered on the north and west by an L-shaped range of buildings. A shady canopied colonnade hangs out to the pool edge. To the south and east the pool edge is at water level t the water surface appears to run to the horizon. The walkway beyond is stepped down some 3ft below the water level and extends to a sun deck cantilevered out over the steepest section of the shoreline on the SE corner. so The buildings round the pool accommodate: * a games room at the NE corner, big enough for table tennis and a pool table with views out to the ocean N side of the pool with a small bar * an open air lounge on where drinks and other refreshments can be served; sauna a massage area ¢ changing rooms, showers and WCs * and on the SW corner a gymnasium with views acroos Rock Beach to the south The SW corner of the bui né ding rises some 25-30 ft above the 1, providing a substantial windbreak on he island. The intention is to provide ral ground lev sed side o this ext or the more verdant type of vegetation that can be d out o > wind her along 2 Slope, in the shelter of the Recreation Complex, is a small, single-roomed guest house. The room is entered from the main path on the north side and opens to the south onto a shaded, private balcony raised some 10 ft above th ! There is a lobby with storage closets and Further west still, on the other side of the garden approach to the main courtyard, set in the thickest vegetation, is a small timber-built pavilion, that conceals a second, quite different ] r deck on one side and ) gle greenery. It is intended fora dip rather ¢) recreation pool the more exposed, sunbaked p. ge-and-swim in th F i) i) w uw Then there is a group of service buildings. The largest is a garage court fo > accommodation of the buggies and ATV's and for the storage of other large items. This building has been deliberately placed on the saddle between the east and west beaches, firstly to provide a foil for the ugly lines of the generator house and partly to provide an additional ndbreak to shelter the richer vegetation on the lea side The buildings have low stone-faced walls which are extended out to 1 and south to provide additional wind shelter to the planting. The low-pitched roofs will conceal the top of > generator house with its vents and exhaust cowls especially when seen from the terrace of the main complex The roadway from the landing stage to the various entrances fi tor vater plant, traverses the garage court ated Openings ly there are the workshops and storage places next to the ’ Home Beach. The topography of the beach edge is such that small single-storey buildings can be almost completely concealed behind the greenery that borders in the beach There are currently three of these used for © the storage of storage of beach and boat equipment; * an open air workshop for carpentry, building works etc; © anda workers rest room All of these are likely to be useful on a more-or-less permanent basis and might be rebuilt more robustly in due course. A further building culd be added for the use of staff staying overnight The other new buildings are set lower still, around the level of the present staff house - about 20-35 ft above sea level The first is a guest cabin set between the staff house and the MBR suite just below the track to the MBR. It is suitable for a family, with its two bedroom suites and a shared sitting room Like several other buildings, the entrance is on the up-hill side and the principal rooms face out the other way with shaded, airy balconies raised above the falling ground level framing views of the ocean EFTA00259446

THE WIDER LANDSCAPE Most of the island is a natural wilderness. That is its beauty and attraction. In the main, that is the way it should stay and igned merely to any man-made insertions should be d highlight its essential features and invite exploration and understanding of its complexity The principal charm of exploration is the unknown and unpredictable. Destinations may be only hazily understood; routes my be hidden or indirect; certain features may only be discovered by accident Many i g features can be identified on the map of the island: special vantage points; remarkable geological features; particular botanical marvels; locations with special ered and secret, or wild and nterest atmosphere - whether sh exposed; and so-on Some of these should be marked with structures that identify them from a far,or enhance, in some way, the special character of the spot, with shade, shelter or whatever. Some should be left to speak for themselves, to be discovered, as if by accident at a turn of the path We have identified a few of these points and suggested structures to mark or enhance them. A number of points can be seen from the house and could be marked with ‘eye-catchers’ o wn 7) The west point ends in a single outcrop of rock, visible from the Main House, that drops some 20ft to the ro out of the scrubby vegetation - which on airly thick.

We suggest this be marked by a ring of twelve standing stones, ideally found on the island itself, hopefully 8 -10ft high. These would mark point in a way that is both natural and mysterious 1 from most parts of the island its this anuique asi ated place, a place of ceremony and perhaps to mark the events of the celestial calendar a very remote indigenous people for a meeting The summits of the east and south Points are similarly visible from the sea and from other points on the island. They too could be marked with monumental objects: a tower, a sculpture or a single standing stone. That on the east point could be accompanied by a sheltered seat formed in the rocky outcrop that faces the seaward view EFTA00259456
