Farley Farmhouse

摘要

This project consists of an extension to a rural farmhouse in the village of Farley in Wiltshire. The new volume echoes the form of an existing extension, which has also been restored and refurbished, creating a double-pitched internal space that opens out onto a kitchen garden. The new extension is clad in hand-made arrowhead clay tiles, crisply detailed to complement the existing material palette of bricks and hangingtiles, while clearly marking out the volume as a contemporary addition. Slimline, black, steel-framed doors and windows have been inserted into existing and new openings, matching new powder-coated copings and sills. Internally, an expansive new floor of hand-made terracotta tiles and terracotta lightfittings bringearthy tones to the kitchen and dining area. Painted timber panelling lines the walls to create a datum with the openings and unify the space.
