Farm building

The project deals with the rethinking of the outside area of the agritourism farm ‘Canales’, located on the edge of the basaltic edge of the Cedrino lake, in Dorgali (Sardinia, Italy); The design choices follow the awareness of an urgent need for quality for the project in the rural contexts of the island of Sardinia. A research of quality that the intervention tries to translate into builtshapes, reinterpreting the principles and features of that minimal living that has built up the island's low-density landscape over time. These principles-issues gain their formal construction in the identification of a mosaic road that hierarchizes the informal space between the farm buildings and mentions, through scraps and plates, the thre...

El viñedo de Tillingham ry está situado en Peasmarsh, al borde de un camino sinuoso, entre campos y arboledas, con vistas panorámicas sobre el valle de Tillingham hacia la ciudad portuaria de Rye. La visión de nuestro cliente es producir vinos orgánicos artesanales de alta calidad. El mandato requería un enfoque creativo para reutilizar los edificios existentes, diseñar el hermoso paisaje circundante y hacer referencia al rico patrimonio del lugar. Este ambicioso proyecto incluye 70 acres de tierra de cultivo y varios edificios agrícolas, incluyendo un tradicional Oast del siglo XIX. Los edificios de la granja han sido restaurados para facilitar la producción de vino orgá... Más

La casa familiar al pie del Veľká El Parque Nacional de Fatra está localizado en la frontera entre la zona urbanizada y la zona edificada. Folkly, la casa está situada detrás de los mogotes, por lo que toda la formación de la materia está destinada a preservar el concepto tradicional de apariencia rural. La expresión global del volumen de la casa está atomizada por el paisaje de sus tejados mediante los tipos de dos tejados a dos aguas, que se gradúan hacia arriba. La división material de la casa se basa en gran medida en las formas de los antiguos edificios de la granja de almacenamiento, los llamados graneros situados en la región de Turiec.   Tambié... Más

Conocida como Kilnwood, la propiedad está localizada en el borde de las colinas de Mendip con una extensa vista sobre Glastonbury Tor. El encargo del proyecto dado a De Rosee Sa era asegurar que la renovación y la nueva construcción compartieran el mismo lenguaje local vernáculo y arquitectónico que el de otras granjas y edificios rurales cercanos, como los tejados a dos aguas y el entablado de madera negra de la solapa del barco.   Con la casa principal, un granero convertido, De Rosee Sa diseñó una entrada impresionante y acogedora. Creó un nuevo porche de entrada exterior que funciona dos veces como cuarto de botas, y dentro de lo que era el pasillo original, reubicaron la es... Más

The existing church needed to double in size to accommodate a growing congregation - the church could not be easily extended so it was decided to build a new church and to re-use the original church as a space for children and performance. The minister, Gavin Millard, was an architect who was educated at Wits University in the 1980’s before entering the ministry.   He was agreat client as he understood our intentions and processes - not only was he a great facilitator but also added immeasurably to the process through wise counsel. He was taught by Jo Noero when he was a student at Wits and had shown a great interest in the church architecture that Noero had completed as diocesan architect for the then Transvaal Diocese of the...

The private homes are located on a sloping plot in Selva, which - situated in the heart of the South Tyrolean Dolomites - forms the end of the Val Gardena.  In terms of urban planning, the design of the buildings is inspired by the typical so-called “Paarhof”, a form of mountain farm common in the entire Alpine region, in which the residential building and farm buildings are built in close proximity to one another and their gabled roofs are mostly oriented towards the valley. Due to the hillside location of the homes, they only seem like two-storey buildings looking downhill, as the cellars and the shared garage were built underground into the slope. On the lower floor, the two structures are connected to each other, the s... Más

Había una propiedad existente en el sitio que fue demolida. Constaba de dos cabañas para los trabajadores. Tenía una planta muy larga y estrecha, estaba construida con un estándar muy pobre, no había sido mantenida durante muchos años y sufría hundimientos. No era posible renovarlo para cumplir o superar las normas actuales, por lo que la demolición era nuestra única opción.   Tras el proceso de pre-solicitud, los planificadores acordaron que una vivienda de reemplazo sería aceptable, pero estipularon que debería ser de madera negra, estilo granero, con un techo de tejas de arcilla, y que debería estar en la misma ubicación en el sitio q...

Dos modestas estructuras de un solo piso - la más pequeña para los padres, la más grande para la joven familia en crecimiento - responden sensatamente a la topografía y vegetación local, y forman un conjunto similar a una granja junto con el edificio de la granja existente. La entrada y el edificio lateral están completamente intactos. La frontera entre lo público y lo privado se encuentra en el borde de la propiedad (frente a la entrada), y no en el edificio en sí. La llamada "casa de veranda" sirve como base de contenido de las dos nuevas estructuras con grandes verandas en la parte delantera, concebidas como pabellones de jardín de una sola planta. Más

The three building shells (a replacement building and two new buildings) allude to the former farm buildings in the farmstead areas, given the absence of protrusions and recesses and therefore their simple design. The replacement building that was completed at a later date adopts the development structure and gable design of high street development and is a continuation of this.   The two new buildings completed (and shown here) were developed at the lowest point of the plot and follow the site as it falls away slightly to create a required graduation of the ridge heights between the two adjacent street areas. With their position they accentuate the new replacement building as the main and front building. The rhythmic street area wit... Más

A simple building, inspired by the agricultural context, is deliberately placed at the original location of the rural barn. This preserves the space effect and intends a pleasant interaction of the two structures. The listed main building and the new accommodation wing complement each other to form a beautiful ensemble of buildings, reinforcing each other in their architectural and spatial impact. The new building delicately adapts the proportions and materiality of the original farm building, building on a clear rectangular floor plan and simple saddle roof construction, thereby preserving the rural scale. The chosen simple typology addresses the rural element and the rural environment in which the Ellgass family is active and has its root... Más

In the green countryside of Treviso, near the Sile river and the Venetian lagoon, is where H- Farm was born: a business and training center geared to innovation through new technologies. The renovation of abandoned farm buildings and the construction of new wooden ones marked the first intervention where today more than five hundred people are living and working. The new expansion, the second phase of the project still in progress, concerns H-Campus, an international education district which will involve students, teachers and professionals: a multitude of people coming towards this evolving place and shaping a new community, giving new life to a forgotten countryside. The main value of this site is the dominant landscape, where the main in... Más

We’ve created a modern farmhouse that extends into the natural prairie landscape, providing a humanistic experience in natural light underneath vaulted ceilings. The interior experience is intended to mirror the exterior feeling.   Our client purchased 19 acres of land in Southern Wisconsin with the goal of spending their time surrounded by the native prairie that they themselves had rehabilitated. The couple wanted a single-story home that would not dominate the restored prairie, but rather enable the interior experience to be an extension of it. We conceived the project as a modern farmhouse, a building typology centered around the outdoors, to meet the needs of the client. The residence consists of three vaulted shapes nestl... Más

It was only after living in their 400-year-old Jacobean farmhouse in Suffolk for 3 years that Architect Howard Nash (Co-director of Nash Baker Architects) and his partner Monique Beauval-Nash felt they knew the building well enough to make a start on its renovation. They used this long gestation period to good effect, repairing and improving decaying Victorian farm outbuildings and developing creative ways of tackling the architectural and conservation issues raised by the main farmhouse. Now, they have completed building works to the farmhouse and the result is a subtle and exquisite weaving together of the historic, the not-quite-so historic and the contemporary into a quietly confident statement of architectural and design excellence....
