THE BARN | STONE FLOWER
20 Forest Road, West Hobart, TAS

Architect: Maria Gigney (Studio Ilk Architecture & Interiors)
Working with a very limited budget, The Barn reused every piece of timber removed from the original structure, retained all of the stone, and ‘reinvented’ some of the original elements to incorporate them into the finished accommodation project. An open, creative hand from the client was the catalyst for the creation of this work. The excellence of the work was acknowledged with an Australian Institute of Architects National Award for Small Project Architecture in 2010.
