11 The Butts

Located in a conservation area, 11 The Butts is a residential project encompassing the refurbishment and extension of a Grade II listed building in Warwick.

The extension’s load-bearing walls are built from reclaimed brick with a terne-coated steel roof and limestone floor, united with the old elements by a meter-wide glazed link. The link aligns the new additions with the first floor of the existing structure, giving the project a contemporary edge whilst preserving the distinctive character of the listed building. The finished scheme also combines a rationale circulation diagram and increased accommodation in a form that allows daylight to reach deep into the building.
