Remodelling and Extension to Grade II Listed Farmhouse with new build Garage/Guest Wing
Stansted Mountfitchet, Essex

This project includes proposals for an extension to a Grade II Listed eighteenth century farmhouse together with a new build detached home office & garage guest wing. The cylindrical design is generated and centred on the circular brick lined redundant water well in the rear garden and makes reference to the previously removed orchard in its tree stump like forms. The proposed vertical oak plank clad structures utilise glulam timber frames to echo the historic timber frame of the existing building and are chamfered at angles to track the morning and evening sun. The guest wing is situated to provide physical separation between living and working environments, allowing views back to the farmhouse and forms a visual barrier to a cluster of recent box houses to the north with the intension of improving the historic setting.
