Church House

Gillingham, Dorset

Simon and Jane’s Dorset home is an attractive farmhouse that is disappointingly detached from its big gardens. Jane’s plan was to renovate her twenty year old kitchen; our suggestion was to start with a new lawn where they used to park cars. The challenge was to do the least possible to turn a house surrounded by asphalt back to a farmhouse with doors, windows, and gardens that felt right, giving them a much better relationship with very familiar surroundings.
