asmall farm...

planning approval : our clients’ proposals for a new dwelling in ormskirk have been approved by the local authority and we have completed technical drawings ready for start on site very soon : the proposed form of the building will reflect the simple lines of the traditional barn structure that it replaces, and is typical of the local vernacular : the design has an over-arching contextual approach, utilising traditional materials that provide an appropriate design response to this agricultural setting, and embraces the beautiful surrounding rural landscape.
