This is a newly built cob house in Devon. The house has been designed to provide an excellent use of space and has considered environmental considerations. This is just one of the newly built cob houses which are incoporating many different traditional crafts to ensure that they are environmentally friendly.
All rooms are finished to a high standard, including underfloor heating and porcelain and oak flooring. Oak doors, oak windows and hand made iron mongery finished with a thatched roof.
I especially like the staircase which has been shaped from the cob itself, which runs seamlessly from the wall. These stairs are covered in porcelain tiles to ensure that they stay flat and safe.
Exquisite! Have the plans or anything further about the design of this home been published?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful house. I have been looking for a house to put a family in in a children's book I am working on. It needs a pargetted hare above the door. I think this house is perfect!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous. Just goes to show that "modern" doesn't have to mean "crap".
