Viewside

A fabric-first house built from the inside out — and from the ground up.

Viewside is John McCarthy's own hempcrete self-build: a three-bedroom house in Dorset, designed and delivered as a live proof of method. The brief was uncompromising — a building that performs without reliance on mechanical systems, built from natural fibre materials with genuine long-term performance credentials, in a planning environment that rewards clarity of argument.
