Green Entrance with a Sliding Front Door Ideas and Designs
SkB ArchitectsThe Sonoma Farmhaus project was designed for a cycling enthusiast with a globally demanding professional career, who wanted to create a place that could serve as both a retreat of solitude and a hub for gathering with friends and family. Located within the town of Graton, California, the site was chosen not only to be close to a small town and its community, but also to be within cycling distance to the picturesque, coastal Sonoma County landscape.
Taking the traditional forms of farmhouse, and their notions of sustenance and community, as inspiration, the project comprises an assemblage of two forms - a Main House and a Guest House with Bike Barn - joined in the middle by a central outdoor gathering space anchored by a fireplace. The vision was to create something consciously restrained and one with the ground on which it stands. Simplicity, clear detailing, and an innate understanding of how things go together were all central themes behind the design. Solid walls of rammed earth blocks, fabricated from soils excavated from the site, bookend each of the structures.
According to the owner, the use of simple, yet rich materials and textures...“provides a humanness I’ve not known or felt in any living venue I’ve stayed, Farmhaus is an icon of sustenance for me".

北野彰作建築研究所門屋を独立して設ける構成は元々の配置計画でしたが、セキュリティという点で緩い箇所が有ったので建具を新しく入れ替えオートロック機構や宅配ボックスを新しく導入して更に利便性を高めました。
neil designThis new double height entryway to the existing home gives a real sense of arrival, while enclosing the existing external stair. Passersby can catch a glimpse of the internal garden and walkway.
Light will pass through the entryway across the day, while the living spaces remain shaded, cooled by breezes passing through the permeable screen sections.

The Practical Planning Company LtdIn August 2020, we sought planning permission for a single storey rear extension at Thurlaston Chapel – a Baptist church in Leicestershire.
Thurlaston Chapel had become a growing centre for the community and the extension plans were a conduit for the growing congregation to enjoy and to enable them to cater better in their events that involve the wider community.
We were tasked with designing an extension that not only provided the congregation with a functional space, but also enhanced the area and showcased the original property, its history and character.
The main feature of the design was the addition of a glass gable end and large glass panels in a more contemporary style with grey aluminium frames. These were introduced to frame the outdoor space, highlighting one of the church’s key features – the graveyard – while allowing visitors to see inside the church and the original architectural features of the property, creating a juxtaposition between the new and the old. We also wanted to maximise the beauty of the views and open the property up to the rear garden, providing churchgoers with better enjoyment of the surrounding green space, and bringing the outside in.
Internally, we added a glass partition between the original entrance hall and the new extension to link the spaces together. We also left the original wall of the previous extension in as feature wall to retain some of the original character and created a kitchen area and bar out of the original outbuilding, which we managed to tie into the new extension with a clever hipped roof layout, in order to cater for growing congregation.
iNSPiRE Landscape & Garden DesignIn response to the Housing crisis in Auckland, a new style of development emerged, and has continued to dominate the market ever since. In these photos we can see why, as they are aesthetic and fulfil a need! The gardens in developments vary a lot but in this case we opted for high grade artificial grasses and basic shrubs/grasses, so that the home owner would have more to play with, and more open space to enjoy on sunny days.
