Bolton Coach House by Kingston Lafferty Design
Bolton Coach house located in Dublin, Ireland, is an historic coach house and paper mill dating from the 18th century that Kingston Lafferty Design transformed into a contemporary home.
Description
We were commissioned to reimagine the interior architecture of the existing building, incorporating a new contemporary extension and exterior terraces and garden. The new design needed to combine and juxtapose the old and new buildings as one interesting and exciting multi-level, unique space.
The existing coach house was brimming with character, charm and original detail and we wanted the extension to both embody, complement, and contrast with the older structure. We set about deliberately creating interesting spaces, nooks and crannies with the minimal and streamlined extension design. KLD wanted as little as possible to detract from the elegant simplicity of the space. Spatial layout is very important. A sense of seamlessness was key for maximising the flow of light colour and calm through the house.
KLD transformed the ground floor into a multi-level space with sunken pockets and effortless fusion of the outdoors with the interiors. Deliberately creating interesting nooks and crannies to contrast with the openness of the house after it was first converted.
KLD?s aim from the beginning was to create a connection between the old and new spaces of the house, making the most of the magnificent arches but also the new, clean extension with a lot...
