Refurbishment of a traditional scottish shepherd's longhouse with added new wing. Careful restoration of existing stone walls and new construction clad with louvred larch. Red corrugated roofs replace the original painted corrugated iron and the louvre detail derives from local barn structures. Large windows and high level glazing make the most of superb views to the surrounding hills. Detailed to sustainability standards with heat recovery and an air source heat pump to ensure a cosy interior. Compactly planned while still achieving spatially interesting interiors. 2017 RIAS Award, 2017 Zero Waste Scotland Resource Efficiency Award, Civic Trust Award
