West View, Upper Poppleton

A charming oak room on the rear of an ordinary suburban house. The exposed oak frame extension came from the direct relationship between the owners and the suppliers of the oak frame. The result is out of the run of professionally commissioned design and is all the more interesting for it. [The owners have realised a personal dream and taken great care in planning the design and engaging the suppliers of the oak frame. The result is very personal, idiosyncratic and of a very high quality.]

Designer: C L Parker and Sons
client/Developer: Owner
Presented by: Mr. John Niklaus, Master of York Guild of Building
