PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

DESIGN AND SELF-BUILD CONSTRUCTION OF A WOOD STORE TO COMPLEMENT A BLACK BOARDED BARN, PROVIDE A SHELTER FOR REFUSE BINS AT THE REAR, AND DISGUISE AN EXISTING OIL STORAGE TANK.

THE DESIGN IS INTEND TO LOOK CONTEMPORARY BUT MARRY WITH THE TRADITIONAL CONVERTED BARN BY USING MATCHING MATERIALS.

THE WOOD STORE IS RAISED ON RE-CLAIMED RAILWAY SLEEPERS TO KEEP ALL THE WOOD DRY.

THE MONO-PITCH FORM INFLECTS TOWARDS THE BARN TO FORM PART OF A WHOLE COMPOSITION WITH THE OTHER BUILDINGS.
