Planning permission received for the renovation and extension to an outbuilding in a historic setting. The outbuilding, set within the former grounds to the Grade-II Listed Knowle House will be remodelled and extended to provide a home studio. The extension includes a light weight sculptural zinc roof which floats over a glazed extension. The zinc will naturally weather to sit sympathetically in its setting, complementing the natural stone walls to the outbuilding. The extension adds a hallway with clerestorey windows, providing eyeline views across the raised garden while bringing daylight into the space. High levels of insulation throughout will provide year round use and comfort to the space, minimizing energy consumption and the long term footprint of the space.
