In the quest for their dream home, architects Rosemary and Ben have designed a modern, eco-friendly home in the Angus Glens
THERE can be few homes with as spectacular a setting as Humpty House – and even fewer offices!
Situated in a quarry in a forest clearing with views overlooking the beautiful Loch of Lintrathen, the largely open-plan house that Ben and Rosemary Scrimgeour built in the heart of the Angus Glens was designed to last them a lifetime.
“At the moment, Humpty House has the capacity for Rosemary, me and our two young sons, our architectural practice and all the ‘stuff’ family life involves,” says Ben.
“However, we designed our house so that when Rosemary and I are 86, it will still work perfectly for us.”
