Valley Barn 度假屋丨Hubert Zandberg Interiors

这栋房子的主人是一位餐馆老板和画廊老板，以及他的环保慈善家妻子，他们有三个成年的女儿。几年前，他们买下了这座19世纪的木谷仓，作为周末度假屋，那时它已经被改造成了适合现代生活的住宅。然而，他们决定更新最初开发人员的一些成果，并邀请Hubert来帮助他们实现这一点。

The owners of this house are a restaurateur and gallery owner and his environmental philanthropist wife, who have three grown-up daughters. They bought the 19th-century timber barn as a weekend house years ago, by which point it had already been converted into a home fit for modern life. More, however, they decided to update some of the original developer’s efforts and they brought Hubert on board to help them achieve this.

该建筑位于白金汉郡农田内，由一个旧的打谷谷仓和附属建筑组成，连接和延伸形成一个l形，可以俯瞰庭院花园。业主希望将规划许可的需求降到最低，因此一位当地建筑师帮助为更换窗户铺平了道路，选择了带有黑色钢框架的窗户，这些框架消失在深色的木质外墙中。在内部，铺设了新地板，重新考虑了建筑细节，整个地方都进行了翻新和重新装修。

The building, set within Buckinghamshire farmland, consists of an old threshing barn and outbuildings, connected and extended to create an L-shape that looks out over a courtyard garden. The owners wanted to keep the need for planning permission to a minimum, so a local architect helped to pave the way for the replacement of the windows, choosing ones with blackened-steel frames that disappear into the dark-stained timber-clad exterior. Inside, new floors were laid, the architectural detailing was rethought and the entire place was refurnished and redecorated.

在l型建筑的一个角落里有一个小房间，它的一侧是一个巨大的客厅和两间卧室，另一侧是一个餐厅和厨房，另一侧是另一间卧室。第四间卧室位于舒适的夹层楼上。

In one corner of the L-shaped building is a small snug, which leads, on one side, to an enormous sitting room and two bedrooms and, on the other, to a dining area and kitchen, with another bedroom beyond. There is a fourth bedroom on a mezzanine level above the snug.

最令人印象深刻的空间之一是客厅，它占据了原有谷仓的一半空间，一直通向屋顶空间，露出一个奇妙的摇摇晃晃的、刷过的橡木框架，与纯白色的墙壁相结合。在这里，就像在房子的其他地方一样，有一个巧妙克制的材料调色板。有木头、石头、金属和由天然纤维制成的织物。颜色很柔和:主要是白色、灰色和燕麦色，加上一点赤褐色和矢车菊色作为亮点。

One of the more impressive spaces is the sitting room, which takes over half of the original barn and is open all the way to the roof space, revealing a wonderfully wonky, scrubbed-oak framework that is combined with pure white walls. Here, as elsewhere in the house, there is a masterfully restrained palette of materials. There is wood, stone, metal and fabrics made from natural fibres. The colours are muted: mostly whites, grey and oatmeal, with a bit of russet and cornflower added as highlights.
