John Pawson, a minimalist architect, published a cookbook family farm cooking in his villa


The main colors of the space are earth color, rat tail grass color and mineral gray, introducing the natural flavor of the rainforest into the room.

John Pawson and his wife Catherine Pawson are on the family farm.

The stones of all houses on the family farm were derived from the most distinctive yellow limestone ore of Cotswold.

The whole farm is composed of several different houses in series, some of which can even be traced back to the 17th century.

The architect John Pawson stopped in front of the fully open sliding floor glass window, facing the green orchard and the farm pond.

The first living and eating is a cooperation between him and food writer Annie bell《 The photos in the book “home farm cooking” are taken in the villa in a documentary way.

The garden that can be clearly seen in front of this large French window is more like Catherine’s world“ She wants to plant flower beds around the villa (a flower fence around the house).

In his 20s, listening to his heart, he went to Japan alone to find the legendary master cangminamata Shirang.

Deep in the room, closets and other sporadic wood parts are made of elm.

The house was purchased in 2012 as a holiday villa for the couple on weekends and holidays.

20 years later, the architect produced the second cooking recipe.

Their amazing fate began.

He didn’t officially start his construction career until he was around the age of 30.

It can even affect the way I perceive the place.

It seems that the only sign of reconstruction is the chiseled entrance to the house on the front, but in fact, the whole house has undergone a complicated renovation process.

His simple and refined style has quickly won the favor of many people, but he still focuses on his simple design style.

  Home / home “the perfect feeling when the content of a work is reduced to the minimum.” People call architect John Pawson a master of minimalism, and that’s how he defines “Minimalism”.

For me, this is a completely inexplicable idea! ” John Pawson complained, “it’s the same as her insistence on curtains.

Cotswold is the second home of many Londoners, and it still retains the typical British rural style.

It’s really wonderful! ” When he was a minimalist architect, he lived in the oil paintings of the 19th century.

I feel the noise and smell of the countryside, and I notice the light changes.

On their wall, there was no decoration except the books on the wall..

The Times describes the architect John Pawson as “a man who makes us minimalists”.

The “family farm” villa in the John Pawson couple’s book is located in the center of Cotswold.

In his own “high-quality space”, no one expected that what the master chose to try was to compile a cookbook with his wife.

Compared with its original house state, only the walls, roofs and huge floor glass windows are still in use, and the indoor space is fully illuminated, which makes people feel impressive.

The couple used their time at home during the epidemic to compile a book about cooking – Home Farm cooking, which is also Pawson’s second book about cooking.

John’s wife Catherine is a great cook.

The living room is wrapped with walls made of elm boards to create a comfortable and open natural state.

Pawson, life on the pastoral farm is very regular, and three meals a day has become an important part of life.

At the beginning of home isolation, John Pawson and his two sons decided to move here and live here for a long time.

What is surprising is that what was born in the architect’s family farm is the cooking recipe compiled by him and his wife…

But I admit that her curtains made of cloth like a monastic dress make the space more comfortable.

Before formally entering the construction industry, John Pawson spent several years trying many industries, but failed.

For him, a quality simple space is not only a bright and comfortable experience, but also the essence and the real inspiration that is condensed to the extreme.

When all this comes into view, they naturally constitute a scene like a 19th-century oil painting.
