About the winning project
The plan was for a master bedroom and ensuite extension to the studio cottage to create a private space that fitted with both the style of the existing structure and the environment in which it sits. Internally the focus was always on simplicity and the feeling of light and space. The clients had very specific ideas for the ensuite including a large open shower area with bi-fold doors to create an indoor/outdoor shower. Externally, the new structure had to sit well in the environment and not detract from but add to the existing stone structure. The clients were open to taking some risks with the external cladding and loved the look of Corten steel which takes advantage of the colours and textures of the natural environment and the existing stone structure.
