03 · Technical set · H-02

Read the building before you commission it.

Before money is committed, this set fixes the repeatable room geometry, accessible allowance, corner-glazing proposition and the interfaces that still require project release. It lets an owner compare scope, site constraints and unresolved decisions against one controlled reference, so approval is based on the same building rather than separate images, notes and assumptions.

Six real drawing sheets stay on the left. The active buyer brief, verified dimensions and complete PDF control stay on the right.

Twelve A3 sheets, available before a site visit. Site access and route separation, the pair plan, the standard and accessible key plans, the guest-walk elevation, the sections, the roof-edge coordination, the housekeeping logic, the envelope assembly, the area and opening schedule, the phasing, and the elevation control study. They are sales drawings that settle what the pair is; construction detailing follows at appointment with a licensed professional on your side.

Sheet brief

T-01 · 3D site axonometric

Place the pair on the operating land before setting out the resort

The site axonometric turns the approved H-02 image geometry into a buyer-readable land diagram. It establishes the detached two-key block, sheltered guest edge, principal glazed face and privacy screen relationship. Surveyed coordinates, finished levels and final screen fabrication remain explicit project decisions rather than invented drawing data.

Guest edge	Sheltered approach and deck reach	✓	2.40 m
Glazed face	Principal corner opening	✓	3.75 × 2.85 m

T-02 · 3D exploded axonometric

Separate the assembly layers without pretending the engineering is released

The exploded axonometric separates the roof datum, frame and glazing zone, floor cassette and pad foundation layer. Confirmed H-02 dimensions stay visible; roof drainage, member sizes, connections, floor build-up and bearing geometry are fixed with your engineer from your survey, and the sheet is reissued when they are. It is illustrative assembly evidence, not a construction detail.

T-03 · Pair component + corner glazing

Read the two-key component and corner-glazing ledger together

The dimensioned pair plan explains the repeatable H-02 unit behind the resort cottages. Two standard keys meet across a controlled component joint while their sleeping rooms, post-free porch edges and full-height corner glazing remain legible. Door sizes stay held until the owner and project team release the opening schedule.

T-04 · Guest-walk modular elevation

Judge the repeated guest edge as one composed frontage

The modular elevation tests six guest-key positions as one continuous resort frontage. Repeated glazed corners, expressed joints, thin roof edges and lifted base gaps establish the approved visual rhythm. The overall building height and final privacy-screen profile are fixed with your survey and your consultant before any component is made; until then the elevation is drawn to the design height and screen profile.

The building sections cut across the post-free porch, floor-to-soffit glazing, sleeping room and opaque service edge. The confirmed cantilever, glass height and clear room zone explain shade and outlook. Structure, floor and foundation build-ups, and service penetrations stay deliberately held for coordinated project engineering.

Check the confirmed areas and openings in one compact ledger

The schedule brings the released standard and accessible key areas together with the principal and return glazing sizes. It gives a buyer one compact place to compare what is settled. Accessible envelope dimensions, door sizes and profile depths are fixed with your consultant during project coordination, and the sheet is reissued when they are.

Decision Rooms

Four decisions that shape the key

Paired cottage keys combining a glazed bedroom with lounge and terracotta privacy screens — Screen or wall decision viewDesign visualisation

Screen or wall

Fins beside the glass, or a solid return

Every key is drawn with a screen of extruded terracotta fins standing just off the glass corner. The fins take the low sun, give the bed privacy from the walk and let the view through in strips. A key whose outlook is poor on one side can have that side closed with a solid panel instead. Decide it pair by pair on the plot, with the plan open, because it changes the elevation the guest sees first.

A solid return in place of the fins does not change the frame, the plinth or the roof pair. It swaps one manufactured panel for a screen and closes a third of the glass. The elevation sheet shows both versions of the same key so the choice can be made on paper, where it is free, rather than on site, where it is not.

OrderGuest brief first

Service side

Which side the housekeeping lane runs

The guest walk runs along the glazed fronts and the service lane runs behind the solid backs, and they never meet. Which is which depends on your ground — the slope, the view, where the laundry sits. Mirror the pair and both lanes swap. It costs nothing to draw now and a great deal to change once the plinths are in. Your operations lead approves this one; they live with it daily.

CharacterWarm and restrained

Eight then four

Open eight keys, extend by four later

The phasing sheet separates an eight-key opening from a four-key extension, and the pairs are identical, so the second phase is a decision about cash rather than design. Open with four pairs and trade; add the fifth and sixth when the rate has proved itself. The walk and the lane are drawn for twelve from the start. Nobody approves the extension’s design later, because there is none.

BoundaryFactory / site / client

MethodOne scope schedule

Completed two-key pair with empty rooms behind terracotta screens and a continuous terrace — Accessible key decision viewDesign visualisation

Accessible key

One accessible key in each opening phase

Two key types are drawn: the standard key and an accessible key with enlarged glazing, a wider service zone and a post-free porch a chair can turn on. The area and opening schedule compares them side by side. Decide how many accessible keys your licence and your guests need before the plinths are set out, because the accessible plinth is longer. The person who sets the room mix decides.

The accessible key’s schedule row gives its glazing width, its porch clear width and its plinth length beside the standard key’s, so a licensing consultant can check the two without a site visit. If your guest mix needs more than one accessible key per phase, the site sheet places them at the ends of the walk where the grade is flattest.

Arrival and landscape

Approach the pair through landscape and shade

Four H-02 prefab resort-cottage views hold the building in its operating landscape: the sheltered guest walk, the planted three-quarter view and the long arrival terrace. Move one frame at a time to compare how the repeated keys, screens and roof line guide a guest toward the private threshold.

You arrive along the guest walk. It runs the length of the six pairs on the glazed side, paved, with the cantilevered roof edge overhead, so a guest reaches any key dry in the monsoon and shaded at noon. The pairs stand a few metres apart in meadow planting, and each pair reads as a small house on its own rather than as a wing.

The first thing a guest reads is the corner. Each key turns its bedroom to a corner of glass with no post in it, and in front of the glass stands the screen — extruded terracotta fins, set vertically, that strip the sun and give the bed its privacy from the walk. In the evening the fins glow and the corner behind them is a lit room.

Look up as you pass. The roofs come in serrated pairs, one pitch rising against the next, a thin metal fascia on the edge and a bamboo-toned soffit beneath it that continues out over the porch without a post. Below the glass the whole key lifts on a dark plinth, and the shadow gap under it makes the pair look set down on the meadow rather than built out of it.

The building

Walk around one cottage pair before it multiplies

The named-angle rail keeps the H-02 resort-cottage pair legible as the viewpoint changes. Follow the post-free corner, screened guest frontage, repeated long elevation, opposite plinth edge and raised distant view. The sticky brief stays in place while each frame tests the same approved building from a different buyer decision.

Stand close to a pair and the method shows. The solid walls are manufactured panels on a steel frame, meeting at a dry joint you can find with a finger — no mortar, no render, nothing applied wet on site. The glass is a full-height unit in a recessed dark frame, and where it turns the corner there is no post, because the frame carries the roof back to the solid wall behind.

The screen is the pair’s signature. Extruded terracotta fins, set vertically in a frame just off the glass, running from plinth to soffit. They are a manufactured element, fixed dry, and the junction sheet shows how they meet the glazing frame and the bamboo-toned boards above. From the walk they are a rhythm you can count; from the bed they are a filter on the view.

The roof pair is serrated — two pitches, one rising against the other — and the thin fascia keeps the edge to a line. The soffit is lined, continues past the wall and over the porch on a cantilever, and carries no gutter on the guest side because the water is taken behind. Under everything is the dark plinth: a lifted base with a shadow gap that keeps splash off the panel and lets the ground be finished last.

Inside the key

Follow the guest room in one deliberate sequence

Five ordered interior frames move through the luxury prefab resort cottage from the principal sleeping view to the rear wall, terrace threshold, accessible room and shaded glass head. The changing caption names the decision in each step so atmosphere remains tied to circulation, outlook and everyday guest use. Together, the frames let an owner test whether the room feels calm at arrival, supports staff routines without crossing the guest path, and keeps the landscape present through every turn rather than only in the principal photograph.

Through the door you are in the bedroom, not a corridor. The plan gives the key no passage to waste: the door opens beside the bed head, the timber bed faces the corner of glass, and the lounge chair sits where the fins throw their striped shadow across the floor in the morning. A guest reads the whole room in one look and knows where they will sleep and what he will see.

Storage and joinery are on the solid back wall, the one that faces the service lane, so the wardrobe, the luggage bench and the bedside joinery all sit on the side the guest does not look at. The glazed sides carry nothing. The bamboo-toned ceiling runs from the door straight across the glass corner and out under the porch, so the room seems to continue past its own wall.

The bathroom is behind the bed head, entered from the room, with its window set high on the service side so the light comes in and no view goes out. Then the threshold: a flush glazed door in the corner, the bedroom floor running level onto the porch, two chairs and a low table under the continuing roof. The guest’s second room, at no cost to the first.

Material and finish study

Colourways

Compare one cottage pair across five landscape settings

The architecture stays fixed while five setting tiles swap the H-02 resort-cottage image in place. Compare winter grassland, monsoon planting, rocky plateau, warm woodland and conifer hills without turning the section into a gallery. The control isolates setting and colour response while preserving the approved cottage massing. Read them as operating contexts as well as moods: each setting tests arrival clarity, privacy at the glazed corner, maintenance exposure and whether the same cottage identity survives a change in season, planting and ground condition.

The pair is drawn in five finishes, and they are five terracottas rather than five colours of paint — manganese, ivory, natural clay, umber and an emerald-glazed clay. The frame, the plinth, the glass and the roof do not change between them. The screen changes, and with it the way the pair sits in its setting.

Manganese reads darkest and suits winter grasses and bare trees. Ivory lifts the pair out of dense monsoon planting. Natural clay belongs on a dry plateau under an open sky. Umber warms a woodland floor of fallen leaves. Emerald sits against conifer hills and mossed rock. Each is photographed in the setting it was chosen for, so the choice is made by looking rather than by swatch.

The finish is chosen after the pair is, which is the right order. The materials board sets the terracotta beside the bamboo-toned boards, the dark steel and the pale stone, and the interior board pairs each of the five with a woven textile, a timber and a metal. Choosing a finish is the last decision, and the only one a guest will ever see you make.

The buyer’s folio

The resort cottage buyer’s folio

Four short chapters on the decisions behind a repeatable resort key: why a pair, what a guest sees, what the pair is made of, and what you are handed before you commit to any of it.

01The corner is the roomHow a glass corner and a screen of fins make one key worth a higher rate than a room.

A single cottage per key is the romantic answer and the expensive one. Every key then carries its own four walls, its own roof pair and its own service run. A row of keys under one roof is the cheap answer, and it is a motel. The two-key pair is the middle that works: each key keeps three outside faces and its own porch, and the pair shares one plinth and one service riser.

Every key sees the hills, and no key sees the key beside it.

Six pairs, spaced in planting, read as a village. Twelve keys in a row would read as a corridor. The site sheet draws the pairs on a notional slope so the spacing, the walk and the rear lane can be measured; your survey redraws it, but the principle survives any plot — every key sees hills, and no key sees the key beside it.

A two-key pair reads as a house. Twelve in a row read as a corridor.

IN SHORT — Two keys share a plinth and a riser; each keeps three faces, a corner and a porch.

02Inside the keyThe bedroom, the threshold, the bathroom and the porch — read as one guest’s sequence.

Housekeeping never crosses a guest. The housekeeping sheet links the rear lane to the linen, the waste and the service door of every key, and the guest walk stays on the other side of the pair. A cart serves six keys from one lane before it turns. That number comes from the length of the lane on the site sheet, and it is an operating number an operator can check before a panel is made.

The door opens beside the bed head; the bed faces the corner.

Turnaround between guests depends on where the service door is, and it is on the section. Housekeeping time per key depends on the plan and the count of fittings, and both are on the key sheets. These are the figures a brochure cannot give and an operator prices a night on, and every one of them is answerable from the drawings.

The accessible key is not a standard key with a ramp. It has enlarged glazing, a wider service zone, a longer plinth and a porch with no post to turn round. The two key types are drawn on their own sheets and compared on the schedule, so the difference is a set of dimensions rather than a promise made at the front desk.

Housekeeping never crosses a guest, and the sheet proves it.

IN SHORT — One room, one corner, one porch — and the service door on the side the guest never sees.

03Walk around the pairWhat the building is made of, and the five ways it can be finished.

The three-part principle is drawn on its own sheet: the furnished key, the structural frame that carries it, and the detached terracotta screen, shown side by side. It exists because a buyer should see that the screen is not holding anything up and the glass is not either. The frame does the work; the rest is what you look at.

The screen is not holding anything up, and neither is the glass.

Real bamboo and real timber do not go on the outside of this building. The soffit lining and the boards above the glazing head are a bamboo-toned finish on a manufactured board, chosen to read as bamboo from the walk and to survive twenty monsoons. Inside, where a hand touches it, the bed and the joinery are timber.

Five terracottas, one pair. The finish is the last decision a buyer makes.

IN SHORT — Steel frame, dry-jointed panels, a glass corner, a terracotta screen, a lifted plinth — and five ways to finish it.

04What you receive before you commitTwelve sheets, what they settle, how the pair is made on site, and what we do not claim.

Nothing room-shaped ever travels. The steel frame members are made in the factory to the drawing. The wall panels, roof cassettes, glazing units, terracotta screens and soffit boards are manufactured and despatched as material, stacked and banded on a flat-bed. On site the plinths are set out from the pair sheet, the frames stand, the panels go up and are screwed dry, the roofs are laid, and the glass and screens follow.

Nothing room-shaped ever travels. Material arrives; the pair is made where it stands.

Sixty to ninety days on site for a phase. The first pair teaches the crew and the fourth goes up faster than the first. The day the frames stand is the day to bring your consultant: they can walk a key before a panel closes it and check the corner, the cantilever and the plinth against the section in hand, which is why the section exists.

We do not state a structural, fire, thermal, acoustic or energy figure as ours. Where a published standard applies we name it and say what is typical of it. No price appears on this page or any page — every pair is quoted against its plot. Delivery in sixty to ninety days and the twenty-five-year warranty are the manufacturing group’s record, qualified per project in the quotation.

We would rather be checked than believed.

The pages that rank for this search lead with homes delivered, cities served and a warranty. Those are good things to lead with, and the group behind this studio has its own — one hundred and more projects, sixty to ninety days on site, twenty-five years. What that page does not hand you is a pair plan, an elevation and a section you can give your own architect before you have spent anything. We would rather be checked than believed.

IN SHORT — Twelve sheets before a site visit, sixty to ninety days on site, and no figure we cannot stand behind.

Questions an operator should close early

How many keys can I open in the first phase?

As many pairs as you build — two keys each. The phasing sheet draws an eight-key opening and a four-key extension, and the pairs are identical, so the second phase needs no new design, only a date. Open with four pairs and trade; add two more when the rate has proved itself.

What arrives on site — a finished cottage?

No. Material arrives: steel frame members, wall panels, roof cassettes, glazing units, terracotta screens, soffit boards, fixings and the fit-out, stacked and labelled to the assembly sequence. The pair is made on your land over sixty to ninety days. Nothing room-shaped is ever lifted off a lorry.

Can I see the plans before I pay for anything?

Yes. Twelve A3 sheets — the pair plan, both key types, the guest-walk elevation, the sections, the roof-edge and envelope details, the housekeeping logic, the schedules and the phasing — are available on request, so your own architect can check the design against your plot before you commit to anything at all.

Is the glass corner structural?

The corner carries no roof load. The steel frame takes the roof back to the solid wall behind the bed head, and the corner is a meeting of two glazing frames with no post. The terracotta screen in front of it carries nothing either. The three-part sheet draws the frame, the key and the screen apart so a consultant can trace it.

Which finishes are available?

Five terracottas for the screen — manganese, ivory, natural clay, umber and an emerald glaze — each photographed in the setting it suits. The frame, plinth, glass and roof do not change with the finish. Real bamboo and real timber are not used outside; the soffit lining is a bamboo-toned finish on a manufactured board.

Who is responsible for foundations and levels?

They are a project input, decided with your engineer from your survey. The section shows the lifted plinth as a height above finished ground and the shadow gap beneath it; the bearing under the plinth belongs to your site, not to our sheet, and it is fixed once before any component is made.
