A stunning project, we were invited to develop the interior design for this incredible medieval Cotswolds Stone barn alongside FAAP Fowler Architecture & Planning who had achieved planning permission to convert this this listed stone barn in the grounds of a Manor house into habitable space.
The key elements of the client brief were to 1. respect the integrity and age of the building and the organic materials such as the beautiful stone and original timbers, 2. to incorporate a central suspended wood burning stove and 3. to design a sensational, sculptural stone staircase.Designing in curves was a real test for us and a serious eyeopener, but working with stonemason and sculptural staircase expert Ian Knapper was a privilege.
And the results are amazing. The joinery by specialist joinery at Pyments of Campden is all band sawn oak. Lighting design was key, we wanted to best illustrate the original features, and flood the amazing natural stone end gable wall. Following the original renovation work of this much loved Oxford landmark, we got back together to complete a dining room extension.

Making is an integral part of our creative process, and often an essential component in achieving our unique and bespoke designs.
We are very proud to produce our own collection of Rogue Designs pieces in our workshop, and also to make stunning bespoke furniture and cabinetry on commission.
Working to exceptional standards for private collectors, commercial clients and architects, and of course for the sheer love of making!
We work with a wide variety of timbers and panel products, but whenever possible we aim to source wood locally, and here in Eynsham we have the opportunity to use woods from the local estate which has maintains and fells timber from their 3000 acres of Oxfordshire woodland.
