Transforming a secluded farmhouse into a bright home by creating an inner patio that gently draws in the warmth of sunlight.
Rather than adding new elements, we strip away non-structural walls and floors to reveal the home's original framework. To preserve the charm of the original structure while ensuring the home meets modern energy standards, we added a new insulating shell crafted in timber.
A split-level principle creates a seamless flow of vertical views between the floors. All living areas are thoughtfully arranged around the patio, with the kitchen serving as the heart and soul of the home.
Starting from the existing barn, we reused as much as possible from the original structure and opted for eco-friendly, circular materials like wood, wood wool, and loam. Also the use of a highly efficient air-to-water heat pump and solar panels limit the house's carbon footprint.
