Holm Place is a new dwelling in the rural village of South Warnborough, Hampshire. The 0.12 hectare site is located in the upper garden of Manor Court, a 17th century Grade II listed building which itself is situated in the South Warnborough Conservation Area. The brief was to create an exemplary modern home to accommodate four bedrooms with open-plan living spaces for entertaining family and friends. The L-shaped plan is pushed to the edges of the site to preserve the green setting around the listed building. The two-storey accommodation is positioned adjacent to the building line of Manor Court to create a direct relationship. The elevational treatment and building materials take their cues from Manor Court, utilising a simple pallet of brick, timber, off-white render, glass and zinc.
