Capel Manor House, Grade II* listed building in Horsmonden, England
The steel-framed residence features horizontal lines, bronze-tinted glass walls, and a cantilevered roof set upon a raised platform overlooking Kent countryside.
Michael Manser designed this modern structure in 1970 for John Howard MP, replacing an 1860s Italian Gothic mansion created by Thomas Henry Wyatt.
The residence exemplifies International Style architecture in Britain through its minimalist design principles and integration with Victorian-era garden elements.
The house incorporates net curtaining throughout its glass walls, maintaining privacy while allowing natural light to enter all living spaces.
Original colonnades from the previous winter garden now surround an outdoor swimming pool, connecting past and present architectural elements.
