The Farm in Denmark by Anita Barner Ibsen
Recently redesigned by Anita Barner Ibsen, this 1972 farmhouse is situated in West Jutland, Denmark.
Description
In its unspoiled location out on the heath in West Jutland, at first glance the ?70s, country-style house hardly catches the eye. Inside, however, some spectacular architecture awaits.
The 250 square metre farmhouse from 1972, together with a renovated barn of 120 square metres, are situated in beautiful surroundings on the heath with grazing sheep and panoramic views on all sides. A rural idyll, which was also why husband and wife Heike and Andreas wanted to preserve the original house in its country style rather than tear it down and build something new.
The story of this very special farmhouse on the heath starts in a modest detached house in Herning. Here, architect Anders Barslund was invited home to Andreas and Heike, who wanted help with an extension. ?We sat down together and looked at some drawings and I made a couple of suggestions, but then finally I asked them whether they actually felt at home there, or whether they shouldn?t just move" Quite simply, I challenged their premise of whether the place they lived in was right for them,? recalls Anders Barslund. Shortly after, the couple called Anders again: this time to say that they had bought a house from 1972 out on the heath. It was built in a farmhouse style and located in rural surroundings ? and they wanted Anders to help them transform the old barn into guest bedrooms....
