It takes a certain amount of courage to go for contrast rather than seamless integration, but this wonderful cedar extension makes a fine job of it.

Although it stands in stark contrast to the existing brick and tile-hung house, the use of warm timber and the simple barn-like aesthetic also manages to complement the rustic original.

And there’s no denying that it really does add an extra dimension – a fine master bedroom upstairs and a wonderful kitchen/living area below that opens out onto a truly enviable garden.
