By
Jon Astbury
A five-star bake. Worth schmearing, sharing, saving.
Summary
Nick Willson Architects designed Three Oaks Farm, a rural home in West Sussex organized around a steel-framed cloister. The house features glazed living areas that overlook a central courtyard, with the steel structure providing shade and defining the architectural layout. Located on a former farm site near Ifold, the property integrates with the surrounding landscape including lawns, wildflower meadows, and a small pool visible through full-height glazing. The design creates a connection between indoor and outdoor spaces while maintaining privacy in the rural setting.
