The project involved the removal of an existing 80s conservatory and replacement with a garden room designed by Anderson Orr Architects, in close collaboration with the property owner. A glazed roof section and feature glass capped well, within the garden room itself, were significant considerations to the build specification. Particular attention was given to the bridging between old and new strutures, in particular the lime plasterwork framing the old stone outer wall and copper faced timber detailing. The matched coursed stone and cast iron guttering are in keeping with the rear facade of the property.

The Asher House Pavilion, designed by HollandGreen Architects, with finish specification and styling by Lara Clarke Interiors sits poolside with a view across rolling Oxfordshire fields. It is attached to the main house but can only be accessed from the garden, via an internal window - which one imagines would serve as the perfect entertaining hatch. A Cotswold stone plinth matched to that of the main house, supports the reclaimed chunky timber, handpicked by the Barr team - forming the frame of the solid old barn style structure. A traditional tiled roof and guttering mean that it is usable in all weather and a wood burner keeps its outside diners cosy on cooler evenings. Rustic furnishings give it a warm homely feel, with large window mirrors reflecting the pool and the stunning wild planting beyond.
