The architect’s brief was to transform a dated 1980s detached property into a striking, contemporary 4,000 sqft family home.
Nestled in a quiet village within the Oxfordshire Greenbelt, the property needed to be reimagined to suit modern family life, embracing natural light while respecting the serene rural surroundings.
The design required a seamless blend of contemporary styling with practical elements that would enhance everyday living.
Bringing natural light into the expansive open-plan living spaces was central to the redesign, and a key component of achieving this vision was the inclusion of a large bespoke rooflight from Stella Rooflight.
Stella Rooflight partnered with architect Palmer & Partners and building contractors Barr Build to deliver a custom-designed rooflight that would meet both the aesthetic and functional demands of the project.
The resulting bespoke conservation rooflight perfectly complemented the home's updated exterior, while providing the interior spaces with an abundance of natural light.
The bespoke rooflight from Stella Rooflight was integral to the transformation of the home, allowing natural light to flood into the open-plan living spaces below.
The absence of a glazing bar provided uninterrupted views of the sky, enhancing the sense of space and light in the property.
The use of 316L stainless steel ensured a sleek, modern appearance while providing exceptional durability, ideal for the exposed location within the Oxfordshire countryside.
The collaboration between Stella Rooflight, Palmer & Partners, and Barr Build delivered a stunning end result.
The new rooflight not only met but exceeded the architect’s vision, helping to create a bright, welcoming, and energy-efficient family home.
Stella Rooflight's bespoke manufacturing process and use of high-quality materials, such as 316L stainless steel, ensure that their products meet the highest standards in design, durability, and performance.
