THE STABLES OF HALCYON / COMMERCIAL PROJECT

\ The Brief

\ The Brief

At the centre of this project was a 100-year-old stone barn. The brief for The Stables of Halcyon was to create a premium regional events venue for weddings, celebrations, corporate events and private functions within its rural setting.

Preserving the existing character of the site was an important part of the build and central to the owners’ vision for the venue. Our team worked closely with them to ensure the finished space respected the longstanding history and significance of The Stables of Halcyon, while adapting it to meet the practical requirements of a high-use events venue capable of accommodating larger guest numbers.
