Taking a simple idea and turning it into something timeless.

The design brief required an original design for Van Loveren Wine Estate’s new wine tasting facility.

The existing wine cellar consisted of a number of 13 m-wide barn structures stacked next to each other, and one more was to be added.

The new structure was built in front of the cellar. The new barn roof was tipped up in the direction of the garden to allow a vertical, full-height view of the lush garden from within the tasting room. The tasting room opens out onto a deck with an L-shape water feature.
