Case study 07

Project type

Reconfiguration of internal space

Project description

This beautiful stone barn had over the past 3 decades undergone a series of conversions, which left its ground floor layout disjointed, and its upstairs almost unusable. The entrance hall was opened up (previously occupied by a cloakroom and a laundry) into a magnificent double height space. A huge window was used to bring in light and views from the garden and a stunning spiral staircase carries you upstairs. The walls were restored to their original stone and the bedrooms above were joined with a lightweight timber and glass bridge. Wide oak floorboards, simple decoration and lighting were used to create a warm, luxurious yet contemporary interior that feels completely at ease with its ancient exterior
