Flight Farm, Para 55, Gloucestershire
The proposed dwelling at Flight Farm sought to retain the two distinct open clearings found on the site and enable the new dwelling to enjoy views into those clearings rather than occupying them.
The conceptual design is derived from a combination of the site’s historic past, connection to quarrying and baking lime for mortar. Flight Farm’s main characteristic is the 11.7m chimney with a circular skylight which sits beside the main body of the house. This striking feature is reminiscent of the traditional lime kilns that can be found in this part of the Cotswolds AONB.
