Near Croftamie in Stirlingshire, an L-shaped single-storey house looks out towards Ben Lomond. We designed two new wings to extend and refurbish it, adding three bedrooms and a dining room that opens onto a south-facing terrace. The tall main bedroom frames the fields and hills, and the loft becomes guest accommodation. Highly insulated walls and roofs and a ground source heat pump drawing from a nearby pond keep it efficient, in local rubble stone and slate.

The new dining room has a large window to Ben Lomond to the north, and sliding doors opening onto the south terrace make it a morning and lunchtime sun trap. New stairs and bathrooms serve the converted loft. New walls are faced in local rubble stone with poured concrete lintels, and slate roofs echo the existing building in material and pitch. Inside, the refurbished and new spaces share light oak floors, timber joinery and areas of exposed ceiling structure.
