Derbyshire Farmhouse
With its transition from one generation to the next, this lifelong family home has been remodelled and updated whilst keeping true to its farming past and rugged moorland setting
The Derbyshire weather can be unrelentingly wet and windy, especially in the Peaks and at moorland level; a building like this really is intended to protect and shelter its residents, with hefty stone walls shouldering against the elements.
Our client was keen on maintaining this strong character and not losing touch with its farmhouse roots, but bringing the interior up to date and fit for modern living. The layout around the entrance to the building was to be remodelled, with the living room moved away from the front door in favour of a grander and more welcoming entry into the house.

Jack Badger worked directly with the client to determine the style of doors, floors and mouldings that would compliment the home and retain the farmhouse style
Our scope was to provide new internal doors, architraves and skirting-board throughout, in a style that was in keeping with the building, but that showed a level of refinement. The internal doors that best fit the brief were our Aldwin oak, nailed and clenched doors, with a nicely detailed frame to the front face. The boarded back face of the door, also fitting nicely with the farmhouse past.
We extended this consistent theme with oak window boards and decorative oak cornice where required, cleverly
housing the Lutron lighting system.
Extra focus was placed on the entrance hall, where our wide board, hand planed flooring was specified in parallel edge and in mixed widths, to give a balance of slightly informal, relaxed and welcoming, but still smart enough to support the feeling of a grander entrance, that the client aimed to achieve with the new entrance hall. This flooring then carried on into the dining room and living area to give a real flow to the downstairs of the home.

A family home and farmhouse, firmly connected to its roots but transformed and updated with carefully balanced period architectural joinery
Working directly with the client and without a wider design or architecture team, was the route Jack Badger tended to follow early in our journey so it was refreshing to be able to work really closely with the client here and help them strike the right balance with the design they were looking for.
Being able to spend time looking at real world examples of our finished projects, whilst talking through all of the ideas and design schemes the client had imagined, was fundamental in getting the final finish right. Likewise, from the client’s perspective, these decisions were so critical and the project that was so close to heart, that being able to visualize first-hand gave a high level of confidence in how the joinery would work in their home, and helped them be able to comfortably move forward with their choices.
