hillside superhome in canford cliffs, poole

this replacement contemporary house in canford cliffs, poole is a highly bespoke superhome shaped by challenging hillside typography and expansive coastal views. designed as a private retreat for modern living, the architecture is grounded in organic form, site responsiveness, and an emphasis on seclusion. as a riba-chartered studio, our approach reflects the same design philosophy outlined on our about page, where craftsmanship, detail, and contextual thinking lead every project.

site and design response

set within a prestigious plot overlooking parkstone golf course and poole harbour, the home takes full advantage of its elevated position. the sweeping curves of the façade embrace the landscape, creating sheltered outdoor spaces that feel secluded while opening to long coastal views. this curvature also informs how the internal spaces flow toward the horizon, shaping a continuous architectural narrative anchored in light and topography.

the infinity pool is fully integrated into the structure. its position at the edge of the hillside amplifies the sense of luxury and sets a clear architectural statement. the arrival sequence is equally considered. a ramped driveway decscends the site and reveals panoramic views before guiding you into a concealed supercar garage built into the hillside.
