Andrew Salterโ€™sย home in Kent, England

Originally a small farm storage building adjoining a 15th century chapel, it was deconstructed and rebuilt in a nearby field with exactly the same proportions.

The interior walls are rough-sawn pine, and floors are locally-grown sweet chestnut. Records sound wonderful in there. Iโ€™ve been working on it for about three years, and dug out a garden by hand. I'mย building a porch, hence the unpainted section on the front.

โ€œI was by myself for a pretty long time. I needed to do that. I think everyone that I know has wanted to do that or needed to do that at some point. I think when you spend enough time when itโ€™s quiet around you and you donโ€™t open your mouth for three or four days, thereโ€™s parts of your brain that can kind of rest. I think when weโ€™re out in the world and we have to talk to people, we edit ourselves. You know, we have to like, act a little bit. As honest as we may be as humans, when weโ€™re out here, weโ€™re all kind of wearing mirrors on our faces. You know, constantly reacting to how to react to the people around you. And I think when youโ€™re alone for a long enough time, you can feel a lot more peace.โ€
