Holiday home The Long House

The Long House, located in Norfolk on the East coast of England, seems cross between a church and a barn. The flint walls were modelled on the traditional buildings of the region. The centerpiece of the house is a large minimalistic-style hall. The wooden spiral staircase resembles the staircase of a pulpit and the surrounding galleries upstairs make a church-like impression. But the elongated shape of the house, and the large wooden roof with its visible structure, clearly resembles a barn. And the two-way stove makes one think of a fireplace. Here traditional craftsmanship meets modern technology, which is visible in the steel struts of the roof. The result is a contemporary house that combines the best of tradition and modernity.
