Open House Weekend, London

Eco House Monmouth Road (Gap House), 28D Monmouth Road W2 4UT (scroll down to read more and see the interactive floorplan)

Built on a narrow 8ft site on a stucco-clad West London Street, the Eco House – otherwise known as the Gap House – is a family home designed to reduce the carbon footprint of its residents. Originally an alley between two listed buildings, the House was completed by Pitman Tozer Architects in 2007, and aside from maximizing the use of minimal space and abundance of lovely cubic forms, the house is also obsessively eco-friendly, with ground source heat pump heating and intelligent rainwater harvesting.

%AThe Gap house is open on Saturday 19th September from 1pm - 5pm with architect-led tours that must be booked in advance through Open House %A
