Murrayfield Mews

A new mews building in Murrayfield, within the Coltbridge and Wester Coates Conservation Area.

The new mews building is proposed within the rear garden of a townhouse, and will form new ancillary accommodation for use by the townhouse owners, including garaging and utility spaces at ground and habitable space above.

A simple material palette is proposed externally, including buff brick and a slate-grey zinc roof to match the tonality of the surrounding buildings, the traditional buildings of which are generally buff sandstone with grey slated roofs.

Internally, a restrained palette of hard-wearing natural materials is proposed including timber panelling, doors and flooring, limestone flooring in the utility areas and plaster wall and ceiling finishes.

Large pivoting timber louvres are proposed at first floor level to provide privacy to the habitable accommodation.
