Kilcanway, Killavullen
The Challenge The Challenge here is the site is located next to a heavily wooded area to the south and west. The best views from the site are predominately north east facing. The existing farmhouse is 150 years old and is disused for the past 5 years.
The Solution We created 2 no pods elements with a link corridor joining the old and new. These pods replicated the form and proportion of the existing outhouses on the site. The existing roof is to be replaced with a new oxidised metal roof sheeting and the new elements will compliment this by using a Zinc Cladding roofing system.
