Referencing old barn structures, Black Barn creates an opportunity for engagement with the street in a distinctly contemporary form, linking to the traditional villa residence.

A glazed link connects with landscape, encouraging natural light and creating a distinct break between old and new.

Commencing as a conversation around a desire for upgraded car parking, the project grew to encompass shared family spaces to enjoy separately from the main home. Dark vertical cladding at once contrasts and complements the existing residence, linking to external detailing and internal feature artwork.
