The proposal for three new homes draws heavily from the existing barn in terms of its materials, form and massing, highlighting existing architectural features and making relatively minor changes to create functional, naturally well-lit new homes, exemplars of sustainable design.

Set close to nature, PO propose to emphasise the impressive views to the rear and incorporate a carefully considered landscape proposal of the site to maximise both private and shared outside spaces and create an approach to the building which delights and connects inhabitants to nature. We propose re-building and re-using existing materials to modern standards and suitable foundations to create a building that will last.

Careful attention has been given to creating exceptional quality interior spaces. The internal re-configuration is based on an open planned ground floor, creating generous living, dining and kitchen spaces with varying ceiling heights, overall providing a strong framework for occupants to enliven the interior with natural finishes.
