Summerhouse Ulbækhusvej, 7120 Vejle
This house is located in a highly sensitive and protected forest in the vicinity of Ulbækhusvej on the northern banks of Vejle Fjord. The design nestles into the sloping site taking advantage of the suns cycle, beautiful views and at the same time being as humble as possible by not attracting attention to itself. The house is built up around a massive oven which provides heat for the house itself as well hot water. Recently new terraces have been added.

Working with highly sensitive heritage sites in the Lake District, England is a wonderful challenge. One which, we have enjoyed over a period of 40 years. Converting old farms and barn buildings into homes by reusing the main structures, upcycling materials from other buildings in the vicinity. D.H. Willacy & Sons have been builders for the last 171 years and continue to collect old materials like, oak timber beams, Lakeland stone and Westmorland roofing slate from dilapidated barns and old properties and reusing them in these projects and new build on these sensitive sites. “Its basic common sense, working with these wonderful heritage buildings by using old materials and giving them new life”. says Mark Willacy the 5th generation builder.
