West Sussex
This original and historic barn located in West Sussex, England, has been the hub of many successful high-goal polo teams and is surrounded by the beautiful South Downs National Park. The brief was to create a comfortable and practical clubhouse for team meetings, polo tournaments and social events to be held. The original building was clad in dark mahogany beams which were stripped back to lighten and freshen the spaces. Swallows often nest in the ceiling trusses and dogs and children are always welcomed so the furnishings had to be durable and cosy while also working to a budget.
