Works have completed on the renovation and extension of Hyde Court, Chalford, Stroud. A new copper clad extension opens the rear of the house to the views across the Golden Valley to Chalford. The design provides a careful balance between old and new by using natural copper which will continue to oxidise and darken with time, developing a beautiful patina to complement the light Cotswold stone. The design of the copper mullions replicates the proportions of the original stone mullions windows, creating a frame to the doors which open the living space to the garden. The copper cladding is dressed over an Accoya timber frame to provide added durability.
