BXB Studio Boguslaw Barnas has transformed a rural homestead into a modern residential manor in Poland.

The project encompasses five contemporary buildings created in the place of farm buildings due for demolition. The newly designed forms have a unique shape that references the existing farm layout, terrain, view axes, functional needs, division into residential zones and the location of the farm's trees.

The selection of materials, creation of the inner courtyard and spaces integrated with the surrounding landscape are key to the design, while the contemporary ornamentation of the entrance area corresponds to the historical ornaments of the entrance area in The Old House in reference to its historic past.

This project has been longlisted in the rural house category of Dezeen Awards 2022.
