THE COACH HOUSE

The Brief

The Coach House is a conversion, renovation and extension project undertaken with sustainability in mind. Our client gave us a unique opportunity to repurpose an existing structure in a way that minimizes environmental impact while preserving a traditional building for future generations.

Originally used for storing carriages and horses to service the main house on the estate, the property had fallen into disrepair. The brief was to transform the property into holiday letting accommodation offering functional, light-filled spaces which retain the character of the original building. By focusing on sustainable design principles, our aspiration was to breathe new life into a historic building while contributing to the broader goals of sustainability.
