Designers, gallery owners and identical twins Nik and Jon Daughtry had a dream of building their family homes next to each other, by themselves no less. Our team helped to make their dream a reality and since completion this project has attracted national acclaim when it was named Best Residential Development at the 2018 Northern Design Awards.
Built on an old industrial site in Oughtibridge in the north of Sheffield, UK, where a 200-year-old corn mill used to operate, the fittingly named ‘Corn Yard’ was designed for low maintenance living based on the use of untreated materials, exposed services and energy efficiency.
The site has been turned into two five-bedroom homes which manage to retain the original centuries old features while at the same time creating a modern living environment.
