The darker and more eccentric guest house

Posted on Tue, 13 Jan 2026 by KiM

“The barn” is the guest house from my previous post and designed to be polar opposites to the main house. A dark exterior of shō sugi ban wood with a more fun, colourful and eclectic interior including a dreamy plaster spiral staircase with snake railing, a lofty Parisian-style second floor, a powder room with a mix of hand-painted tile and ochre zellige (an obvious favourite), reclaimed Belgian brick and petit granite flooring, a 2 story brick fireplace…..this is really special and just as fabulous as the main house.
