Work at Reed Farmhouse connected a new extension with the retained parts of the building. A new oak staircase and doors establish the circulation, while a panelled study and fitted bookcases give one of the original rooms a distinct purpose and character.
The New Extension
A new oak staircase was made for the extension, with a panelled cupboard fitted beneath the flight. Solid-oak six-panelled entrance and side doors continue the same material through the hall, while oak kitchen doors and tulipwood internal doors and linings respond to the requirements of the adjoining rooms.
A Panelled Study
The study combines oak wall panelling with a pair of L-shaped bookcases. Open shelves provide space for books, while cupboards below keep less decorative items out of view.
A hand-carved overmantel gives the fireplace elevation a focal point and relates its detail to the fitted joinery elsewhere in the room.
