This project in Rushden is a guesthouse and home office located at the far end of a large rear garden. Conceived as both a quiet workspace and occasional accommodation, it is supported by external terraces that enable year-round use.
The building is formed of two main wings beneath flat roofs, separating working, resting and service functions while creating sheltered external spaces and framed views back towards the main house. This arrangement establishes a clear spatial sequence and a calm rhythm of movement through the garden.
Large openings bring in consistent daylight while maintaining comfort, while the internal layout remains simple and flexible. Charred timber cladding gives the building a quiet, durable character that sits naturally within its garden setting.
