Located on the Isle of Mull, the former barn has been repurposed into a community dining hall

Croft 3 has recently completed on the Isle of Mull, located off the west coast of mainland Scotland, marking the first completed project by London-based architect fardaa. 

Set low into the sloping plot, the development sees the adaptive reuse of a dilapidated stone barn into a dining hall and restaurant, connected to a new timber-clad extension housing a foyer, kitchen and visitor facilities.

With contrasting gables of stone and timber, the structure is defined by two offset pitched volumes that echo the twin hillscape of the Isle of Ulva across the bay.
