'You Make Me Feel Mighty Real', Summerhouse, Belsay Hall, Northumberland, 2000
This summer house, built originally for English Heritage at Belsay Hall, Northumberland, now resides at Grisedale Forest in the Lake District. The design is based on a Romanesque church. It is clad in thousands of metal discs which create a pixelated pattern depicting overscaled Romanesque decoration. The discs move and catch the light in the wind creating a magical effect of rippling light. Inside are two seats from which to contemplate the forest which is visible from the window.
