'Dolphin Cottage', Cowes, Isle of Wight
John Onken of John Onken Architects reveals how the design of the house uses the first floor like a large ‘duvet’ over the open and light ground floor and explains how high insulation values and good solar qualities made Dolphin Cottage an exceptional eco-home that won the 2006 Ibstock/RIBA Downland Prize for new build.
