Daily Dose From now to your death 1341 | Jonathan Burlow - Over the Edge Focus - House extension in Hythe, Kent by Jonathan Burlow. "The concept of the addition to the main house arrives as an expression of the ideologies behind the historic rural grain store buildings, typically constructed in Southern England during the 18th century. Commonly grain store buildings were built separated from the main house on saddle stones, lifting the granaries above the ground, thereby protecting the stored grain from vermin and water seepage. The extension references the rationale at the time, lifting the kitchen from the ground and placing the space on a concrete pedestal." Via Divisare. Photograhy Simone Bossi.
