“Our intention,” says Robert Barnes, “is to achieve a contemporary house and studio of exceptional architectural quality in this area of outstanding natural beauty. We have consulted very closely with the clients and planners for over a year to achieve this, it has been a great experience and well worth all the hard work.”
The design incorporates an artist’s studio, large library and writing room. The building is sited close to the northern and adjacent field boundary, the L-shaped plan enclosing a south facing garden which also functions as an entrance courtyard.
