 We’re delighted to have gained planning permission to extend this country house in Berkshire. We designed this house originally and are delighted to have, once again, been invited back to work on the next stage of the evolution of this family home. We’re currently working on the technical drawings and are looking forward to seeing it start on site soon! Whilst we love town life, country life is our great passion.
It is fitting then to look back at when one of our country house projects in the Test Valley was featured in Country Life magazine in November 2004. Author Caroline Fetherstonhaugh chose our scheme as one of just five homes carefully selected to represent “new houses in the classical tradition”.  Continuing our look at the INTBAU charter…
Another point raised within this document is that “traditional buildings and places maintain a balance with nature and society that has developed over many generations”. We feel really passionately that the nature within a place is something to be celebrated and cherished, such as at this Hampshire country house where we retained existing mature trees as part of the landscape design. |
