Light Atelier

Op een afgelegen kavel in een veengebied heeft Mirck Architecture een atelier ontworpen. De binnenruimte is heel licht, in tegenstelling tot de donkere verschijning in het landschap. Binnen is het hout blank, buiten is het hout vergrijsd en zwartgebrand. Katja Effting De entree is benadrukt door de enige afschuining van het zadeldak. Het dakschild op het zuidwesten bestaat volledig uit matzwarte PV-panelen. Het dakschild op het noordoosten bestaat uit matzwarte vlakke pannen en een groot daklicht.

Deus Videt Te

In the middle of the Flemish fields, our clients bought an old house with an adjacent, dilapidated barn. Both buildings were in urgent need of some tender love and care, but there was one big asset: the location.  Bert Vereecke Urban planning regulations forced us to rebuild the barn. Therefore, this ruin was renovated and partly incorporated into the living area. Another part was converted into a double garage. The original front façade of the house was restored to its former glory, and the view of the barn was not changed either, again because of the local planning regulations. The rear façade, however, was fitted with large windows that offer a magnificent view of the surrounding fields and nature. They also conn... Mehr

BARN B

BESTEHEND Scheune B ist ein Renovierungsprojekt, bei dem eine bestehende Scheune aus Feuerstein in eine Reihe von offenen Wohnräumen umgewandelt wird. Die Scheune befindet sich inmitten einer Gruppe von landwirtschaftlichen Gebäuden, die zusammen einen geschützten Hof auf einem Hügel bilden.  Caption Vor Beginn der Arbeiten war das Innere der Hauptscheune durch freiliegende massive Steinwände gekennzeichnet, die vier Holzbinder trugen. Natürliches Tageslicht fiel durch die hoch gelegenen Fenster an der Giebelseite in die Scheune. Zwei gewölbte Außentüren durchschneiden die Mittelachse der Scheune und verbinden den geschützten Innenhof auf der einen Seite mit der Landschaft auf d... Mehr

House CCB in Switzerland sees the transformation of a barn into a luminous contemporary residence

Transformation in Ayent

This barn is located in the village of Ayent, in a rural setting. For centuries, this building has fulfilled these agricultural functions. Nowadays, a family decides to transform it into a home. The challenge was to keep the original gasoline while meeting current needs. By offering a fully glazed southern facade, we have highlighted the original construction. This contrast allows the interior spaces to be bathed in light. Inside, it was essential to keep as much of the original spirit as possible. The result is a marriage of stone, wood and metal that combines modernity with history. Mehr

Red Barn

Die Red Barn befindet sich auf einem Anwesen an der Küste von Connecticut und bietet Platz für einen Künstler im ersten Stock (ein Atelier und eine Werkstatt) sowie moderne Wohnräume im zweiten Stock (ein Schlafzimmer, ein Bad, ein Wohn- und Essbereich). Die programmatische Flexibilität ist ein wichtiger Bestandteil des Entwurfs der Scheune, da der erste Stock in hohem Maße rekonfigurierbar ist. In krassem Kontrapunkt zum Traditionalismus des Gutshofes beherbergt das Gebäude seine Funktionen in minimalistischer, grafischer Effizienz, da es eine übliche Gebäudeform Neuenglands neu interpretiert. Ein durchgehender Regenschutz umschließt das gesamte Profil der Wohnung und geht nahtlos in eine... Mehr

Cotswold Barn

Jim Stephenson Jim Stephenson   A radical approach was required for this converted barn sited in open countryside. The aim was to create a house that sat naturally in the landscape with the appearance of a traditional agricultural building.   The previously poor conversion required a new build. We used the salvaged stonework and added two new wings and a swimming pool. A new build meant the standard of construction and insulation would be of the very highest standard and had the added benefit of being zero rated for VAT. Jim Stephenson Jim Stephenson Jim Stephenson We had worked on the clients' London home and they were keen to have our design ideas for their new weekend and holiday house. The brief in... Mehr

Chiltern Barns

Will Scott   The conversion and extension of an existing stable block. The building provides for various animals, including alpaca, chickens, pigs and sheep. We updated and adapted the existing building layout, to create a secure courtyard with two new additional wings housing a garage, store and pottery studio. Will Scott Will Scott Will Scott We chose to cut into the existing land so the courtyard slips gently into the garden without disturbing the surrounding landscape.   The new buildings follow the ridge height and roofline of the existing stables and are clad with vertical cedar boards. Together, the buildings form a neat u-shape, bordered by a beautiful brick wall. The symmetrical layout addresses th... Mehr
