"proof that modern architecture has a real place in the countryside"

a new contemporary home on a rural site

This replacement dwelling is located in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and within a SSSI, on the edges of Frensham Common.  

The innovative structure allowed a much larger replacement dwelling than the planners’ rules would otherwise have allowed whilst remaining subservient to its sensitive location.

Although the house is very modern in character, the selection of a curved zinc roof and oak board rain screen cladding evokes the small agricultural buildings typical of the area.

Internally, a minimalist interior was designed with a series of moveable partitions and doors, creating a flexible family home with open vaulted ceilings.  Although unashamedly modern, this house fits into the landscape as if it has always been there.
