Modern simplicity meets rural charm with a biodiverse yet minimalistic landscape scheme for this revamped property set within rolling hills.
Views from the living spaces towards the natural hills and woodlands beyond are framed by bold and simplistic textural planting within a purposefully restrained palette to the edge of modern terraces and gravel pathways, linking the modern interior styling visually with the natural landscape beyond.
This previously derelict farm site in an AONB has been revived by architects Watershedd to provide stunning modern accommodation within old farm buildings and building footprints. Alongside the restored and reimagined stone, brick and timber buildings a poolhouse clad in charred timber stands as a modern counterpart, seamlessly blending with it's surroundings.
The simplistic palette for this scheme alongside the introduced wildflower meadow makes for a light touch aftercare approach and combines naturalistic elements with the architectural elements in a seamless and modern way.
This project was recently shortlisted for a sustainability and biodiversity award for the introduction of native flora and wildlife habitat within a new garden on what was previously a farm yard site.
