Escape to the country

31/44 Architects has taken barn conversions to the next level with this transformation of a disused grain store in Norfolk. The building looks quite simple from the outside, with a façade characterised by larch louvres and a metal drum, yet the interior is filled with drama. The full height of the building is experienced via an open-plan living and dining space organised around a log burner, and a 15-metre swimming pool. A master bedroom is suspended in-between, while three additional bedrooms are accessed via a glazed bridge (3144architects.com).
