Notes from the Hebrides

Notes from the Hebrides — ALTO journal cover

The light in the Hebrides is unlike anywhere we work: low, silver, and astonishingly clear between the squalls. It rewards a building that knows how to frame it.

Here, shelter comes first. We anchor with board-marked concrete and stone, then open carefully toward the water, reading the prevailing wind before placing a single pane.

It is the far edge of the studio's world, and perhaps the truest test of how we build: quietly, for the weather, and for the long horizon.
