The Bush Cottage is progressing - roof trusses have gone on, and the stone outer leaf will start next week. It's a stunning site, with gorgeous outlooks from every window - and it maximizes the northerly aspect to take full advantage of the winter sun.

Just had three young men for work experience this week - did my best to indoctrinate them into our way of viewing residential architecture!!😉
Respect the site conditions (aspect and orientation), respect the client's wishes and importantly, respect the original house when extending....no slick metal boxes stuck on the back of an elegant old building which will date very badly.
This new build has wonderful views facing north which we're optimising in the design.

The Hurren Architects restoration of Heartwood, doesn't stop at the built form. The extensive gardens are also being lovingly brought back to life - making the most of the views, creating a kitchen garden and spaces for private contemplation.

Not only is Heartwood an impressive and ambitious restoration project of built form, the gardens require similar love and attention to celebrate the old and welcome in the new.

Two new doorways were created in the existing dwelling for the Heartwood Project to make more accessible spaces. The walls are thick ... this takes time and patience (and some sheer brute force).

Tap, Tap, Tap - it's a slow process this stonework. But it is a labour of love. Colin Milne, the Master Stonemason who worked on the restoration of the original building, knows this only too well.
