Slacks Lane, Kneeton

Rural Self-Build new dwelling

​

Inspired by rural forms in the locality, this new dwelling replaces an existing derelict barn. The traditional form is enhanced by subtle elements of contemporary detailing.

​

A walled entrance courtyard responds to the local street scene and is continued around the rear vegetable garden to provide shelter from prevailing winds. An opening frames a view out over the landscape from the dining space whilst a first floor lounge benefits from uninterrupted distant views.
