The pottery studio, situated in an addition of a 15th-century barn, exemplifies the blend of historic preservation and contemporary architecture. Originally serving as an animal shelter, the barn has undergone significant transformation, including the removal of later infill walls to create a glazed corner that offers unobstructed views of the garden. The design features a delicate rooftop preserved from the original structure, supported by a discreet cantilever steel frame, merging the preserved oak elements with modern materials that both honor and contrast with the barn's historical significance.
The pottery studio is a revitalization of a 15th-century barn, transforming an original animal shelter into a modern workspace with seamless garden views.
Removing 19th-century infill walls in the barn's side wing allowed for a glazed corner, enhancing the studio's interaction with the surrounding landscape.
The new design integrates a cantilever steel frame discreetly, preserving the existing oak roof while introducing a contemporary material palette for contrast.
Large barn doors were reinstated in the main barn to honor the structure’s history, combining function with the aesthetic of the original design.
