Construction is progressing well at Seabreeze, a new build two storey beach house at Camber Sands.
The design of the house focuses on creating a robust building to cope with the weather conditions.
The building will be externally finished in pink micro concrete finish to create a monolithic appearance.
The house will include a wellness including a steam room and sauna, along with open plan living accommodation with large expanses of glazing looking across the beach.
The site is isolated requiring all construction vehicles to drive along the beach to reach the house.
Completion is anticipated for Spring 2021.

Bridge Point gains planning consent
02.06.2020
We are pleased to announce that our scheme at Bridge Point, Rye, received planning permission. Our design for Martello Developments sees the conversion of a series of warehouses into artist workshops, performance space, gallery, riverfront restaurant and housing. The scheme includes a riverside footpath running the length of the site with wildflower planting and new boat moorings. An outdoor amphitheatre carved into the riverbank forms the centre point of this exciting new public landscaping proposal that transforms a former lorry park into a rich and biodiverse space. RX Architects in collaboration with sustainability engineering experts Price & Myers and P3R have developed the scheme to aim for the highest environmental standards through the use of on-site renewables and passive design methods. The project aims to open up and reconnect Rye to a historically important part of the town to revive and reconnect this riverside area for all.

Druim Featured in Architecture Journals
09.04.20
One of our latest beach houses Druim has been featured in online architecture journals such as Archello, Archdaily, Architecture Today and E-Architect.
The project involved the remodelling of an existing unfinished detached house. The design expanded the living accommodation and improved the internal layout, maximising the light and open views across the adjacent nature reserve and beyond to the sea.
The design included a replacement first floor to provide extra sleeping accommodation. The first floor cantilevers over the western elevation, to create a covered entrance canopy below to shelter the entrance from the exposed prevailing winds.
The Ground floor layout opens up on all elevations to the nature reserve and sea views, as well as the shingle ridges to the north. The layout provides a large open plan kitchen, living and dining space with a staircase which runs up and around the central brick chimney with slot views to the rear. There is a library snug with a balcony on the first floor with views of the sea.
There is also a detached single storey games room and annex studio with log burner.

Trees For Life
17.01.20
To start 2020, RX Architects have partnered with “Trees For Life,” to enable us to offset all our annual carbon emissions. Trees For Life is a certified UK Reforestation Project dedicated to rewilding the Scottish Highlands. https://treesforlife.org.uk/
2019 saw the vast majority of our clients switch from fossil fuels and embrace on site renewables such as air source or ground source heat pumps and we are excited to say that currently all our residential projects scheduled to break ground in 2020 have adopted on site renewables as the primary energy source.
We fully support our clients in this regard and RX Architects will continue to adopt low carbon technology wherever possible in our construction projects.
