The project

Minett Studio Architecture & Design reworked an existing 1960s clinker-brick house for its own family home. Much of the original building was retained, with a new L-shaped barn and main bedroom wing bringing together the old and new parts.

Colours and finishes vary between rooms, from patterned tiles in the laundry to dark oak kitchen cabinets and softer tones in the bedrooms. New planting extends the domestic character into the garden. The project was completed in 2021.
