Canteen House

The brief for this project began with the decision to re-design and resubmit an existing planning permission and listed building consent. The clients tasked Tim* with delivering a contemporary scheme to extend their historic farmhouse listed at Grade 2, in a conservation area and AONB to match their aspirations and exacting standards.

The project progressed through a period of close collaboration with the clients to precisely tailor a brief to their needs and create a generous and sharply detailed proposal.

A historic lean-to was removed from the front of the house to restore the original grander elevation and the front farmyard was re-established with a new extension nestled behind the farmyard wall. To the south full-height glazing and generously sized terraces were employed to open the house out to the garden and maximise the wonderful landscape views.

Internal works included an exposed solid ash hard-wood roof structure, polished concrete floors, grand but minimal Carrara marble worktops and a range of panel finishes including ply, formica laminates and Viroc. *Tim undertook part of this project whilst a director with Hemingway Burton Architects Ltd / Mountain.
