Twin Farm Barn achieves exceptional standards both in environmental performance, and design aesthetics. The relationship between client and architect was characterized with a healthy dose of perfectionism, and energetic enthusiasm, leading to an outcome that is both architecturally exciting and the client’s “dream home”.
The design for Twin Barn Farm had to negotiate the challenges of planning policy in its rural Norfolk location. The project required a thoughtful conversion of the steel framed shed with minimal impact on the external aesthetic. The solution was for the home to sit within the existing barn structure, while space has also been created to accommodate local craft businesses. This innovative approach to permitted development has resulted in a spatially exciting and energy efficient family home and furniture workshop.
