Background

Description

A design by University of Liverpool based architects Gerald Beech and Dewi Prys Thomas was chosen by the magazine Woman's Journal as its 'House of the Year' scheme for 1960.

Upon completion it was opened up to viewing for the general public for four weeks between 25 February and 27 March 1960, It was envisioned as a house of the future which could be mass-produced, suited for the modern family lifestyle emerging in Britain at the dawn of the 1960s. Ultimately, however, it was never replicated and thus remains a one-off…
