Stable at Derbyshire, Tryon NC
Chris Bartol. photographer
This new stable was designed to be modern in function but to be the iconic feature at this English village development in the Carolina foothills.
I picked out the large plank Hardy board to be practical for a barn and to fit the scale of the building. The trim on the stall doors was painted a verdigris green to eventually match the patina on the cooper cupola as they age. The custom copper lantern is of English design to fit the theme of an English village.
It is their most prominent feature and their prestige.
