Buckland splice is a total renovation of a 1840s cottage in Buckland Buckinghamshire, the CLT extension roof was craned into position with absolute precision.
The extension forms the to be kitchen of the cottage renovation, the feature roof floats above the low diagonal then tapers up forming pockets of light.
Large sections hovered above the prepared site each one precision cut with joins and chamfers, a complex geometry with built in gradients for drainage
An example of the joints with a tolerance as small as 1mm, coming together onsite.
Quite the surprise for any dog walkers was the presence of the crane lifting each piece. The site sits on the hinterland of a village surrounded by farmland
Our intention is to form a wholesome warm countryside kitchen fit for the modern day, surrounded by nature, this is biodiversity boosting architecture.
