Top: Cedar cladding has been used on the exterior of the more modern part of the house, whilst bricks reclaimed from an old garden wall tie this section in with the bricks of the older barn With ultimate flexibility of living in mind, they have installed a water supply to this side of the house so that a kitchen could be added, in case the building ever needed to be two separate dwellings. At the moment though it works as one house just perfectly – and Victoria has cleverly made the interior decor flow. Lighting is a key factor in the overall design. It is all LED, from a combination of small spotlights in the ceilings, but it’s the hanging pendant and accent lamps that are noticed. The large tungsten effect filaments bring – along with the industrial vibe – warmth and cohesion to the two very different styles of building. “We used the same colours all through for the window frames, door handles and the light fittings,” she says. “The windows are all bespoke and each one is a different size. They were made by Phase One joinery. We used local suppliers all through.” “Many people who worked here knew the land, or fished in the pond as children,” adds Dominic. The heritage status is perhaps as much in the land as in the buildings that occupy it, linking communities to the features, buildings and natural spaces in their locality. “We found a batten of wood in the roof,” he says, “with a tally of planes shot down in the Battle of Britain – that must have been raging in the skies overhead when the roof was being repaired during the war.” That piece of wood is a visceral link to the past, but also to the landscape, to the people that must have watched the dog fights taking place in the skies above them here. The past is always being uncovered and rebuilt, battles won and lost. This building will stand as testament to Dominic and Eve’s persistence and determination to succeed in creating something new. They and their team have worked together to reshape a future for two dilapidated wrecks – triumphantly repurposing a heritage building, creating a brilliant new one and blending them together into a sleek, contemporary home. The story arc of this build is complete, but as Dominic and Eve now have their sights set on another project, there may well be a sequel at some point in the future.
