A new farmhouse that respects the open landscape

For the owner and architect, the goal has been clear: the new farmhouse should blend naturally with the existing outbuildings and the open landscape. Here, where the fields stretch as far as the eye can see, the architecture has been designed to respect the location, proportions and rural character.

The roofs of the existing buildings provided an important starting point for the new farmhouse. With Nordic Klikfals, the reference to the outbuildings’ roofing sheets has been carried forward in a cleaner, contemporary interpretation. The profile was deliberately chosen to create cohesion between the buildings while giving the farmhouse a modern architectural lift.

The clean profile is a perfect match for the chosen brick and the farmhouse’s simple architectural style. The result is a solution in which the new and existing buildings speak the same language without being identical.

The façade of the newly built machinery shed is clad in anthracite grey Trapezprofil 35-206. The outbuildings are being renovated gradually, and the roof of the first range has been fitted with Silver tile-effect sheets, ensuring that its appearance harmonises with the other ranges that are still awaiting renovation.
