PROJECT
BRIEF

To prepare a detailed design for the conversion of an existing agricultural barn into a new bespoke residential dwelling with associated access, parking and private garden.

PROJECT
INFORMATION

  • Location: Cheshire 
  • Sector: Residential
  • Client: Private Client

Light drenched spaces seamlessly unite with the garden and wider rural landscape

CHALLENGES AND SOLUTIONS

An authentic three bedroom barn conversion that remains true through utilising both the footprint and structure of the agricultural barn. With emphasis on light and quality of space, tall vaulted ceilings and skylights are throughout. Sleek monochrome hues are complemented with the warming tones of natural wood and hand selected accessories.

The open plan kitchen and living area are orientated to the garden to take full advantage of the rural landscape through the expansive glazed corner. Whilst the central fireplace with media screen inspiringly carves the space into zones.

Full height glazing in the master-suite reveals sweeping views of the garden and vista beyond, with the en-suite hosting a bath and shower. A further two bedrooms complete the sleeping accommodation.

Treated larch cladding and a standing seam zinc roof provide a striking contrast that is harmonised with treated larch solar shading battens to prevent overheating and give form to the elevations.

An outdoor kitchen that is perfect for entertaining completes this fine contemporary home.
