Title: The Lodge

Location: Bruton, Somerset

Client: Private

Project: Refurbishment and Extension

Formally used as the lodge to Redlynch House, the house is set within the formal gardens of the Grade 2 Listed Park and Gardens of Redlynch Park, near Bruton. The Lodge was probably designed by Edwin Lutyens in 1913. Listed Building Consent was successfully granted for a large contemporary extension which offers a dynamic contrast through its glass and timber design with large glazed doors opening out onto the Gardens and making the most of the views of the Park. Locally sourced larch timber wall vertical cladding will mature in time and blend into the surrounding trees. Careful detailing conceals window frames and a hidden back door.
