Mole Architects creates barn-like holiday home within Suffolk farmyard
British studio Mole Architects has created Alde Valley Barn, a brick-clad holiday home on a farmyard in Suffolk that dates back to the 17th century.
The four-bedroom house replaces a steel-framed barn, which was added to the farm in the English town of Aldeburgh in the 20th century.

Mole Architects' design is deliberately simple, referencing the architecture of the barn it replaced while respecting the main 17th-century farmhouse beside it.
"The new building is designed as one of the barn structures that are subservient to the main historic farmhouse, retaining the sense of a collection of simple buildings and their associated outdoor spaces," the studio told Dezeen. It is designed to resemble a barn
Alde Valley Barn has a timber structure and traditional gabled form wrapped in brick cladding, broken up by sliding doors, large picture windows and black wooden panels.
Mole Architects left the structure exposed internally but concealed it externally with the brick cladding, which was chosen to echo the surrounding structures at the farmyard.

The top level opens up to a balcony...
