using the natural boundaries of the site, along with the orientation, our aim is to design a modern single story house, that will sit well within the local area & can be used for future generations.

with the south facing, we want to incorporate a private courtyard area so that our clients, along wth family and friends are able to enjoy our lovely irish summers.. along with enjoying plenty of light within the house all year round too.

The site for this house is located in Glarryford, Ballymena, gaining planning approval as “a dwelling on a farm” under PPS21
Our client wanted a modern/contemporary feel to the traditional farm house seen throughout Northern Ireland.
The challenge was to deal with the conflicting objectives of getting planning permission while designing a home that made the most of the site and views. The form of the house is a response to the local environment, its orientation, the adjacent family farm , and its prominence in this local area.
