The new building will be part of the Humber Valley resort complex in the eponymous valley in the province of Newfoundland. It will be located on a wooded slope, on the banks of the Humber River. Virtually all areas of the villa are oriented to the south, which will give the owners the opportunity to use all the sunlight that is available in these northern latitudes, as well as admire the panorama of the valley.

The house is inspired by the rock formations characteristic of this valley, formed as a result of the retreat of the ice sheet to the north at the end of the Ice Age. The glazing solution should resemble a waterfall with cascades.

Stone from the local quarry will be used as the main building material, and the building frame will be made of wood. The use of environmentally friendly materials will be complemented by the use of the natural heat of the soil for heating, which, as a result, will give a truly "green" building with minimal negative impact on the environment.

In parallel, Shuttleworth introduced the public to his other new project - an office complex near the historic Old Bailey Criminal Court building in London. This nine-storey building of two buildings will surround the new city square, and a passage will be laid through it between two adjacent streets.

Ken Shuttleworth, who for a long time was one of the main architects of Norman Foster's studio, over several years of independent professional practice (Make appeared in early 2004) has developed a large number of projects, and, judging by the regular appearance of his new works, he is not going to slow down for now.
