The property features a stunning red brick barn, with a smaller thatch barn. The thatch barn was originally divided into four small stalls and was therefore difficult to integrate into the home. The solution was to create a building which is part contemporary structure and part thatch barn. The finished gabled structure has an irregular, thatched roof which folds above the contemporary house. The thatched barn is home to guest rooms coated in timber boarding, and the thatched roof offers high ceilings which compensate for the narrow width. The contemporary extension hosts the master bedroom, bathroom, and private patio. The interior is finished with natural materials of brick, concrete, and timber with a warm honey finish, contrasting with the exterior which has been finished in a dark, black zinc cladding, and red brick. This character property offers a warm ambience, with architectural lighting complementing the modern yet cosy interior created, whilst retaining the rural features. “For the house to have low impact on the village setting, it was essential that our design encapsulated the character of the village and the wider site. Adopting a thoroughly modern approach, the larger part of the new house was set back to retain existing views of the thatched barn from the village road and kept deliberately low in height to accommodate the immediate neighbours' views. This resulted in the lowlying folding glazed volumes.” Delphine Dryer, CDC Studio.Holiday Inn Birmingham (GB)
