The Grain Store, Lewes

Situated in the scenic South Downs National Park near Lewes in East Sussex, The Grain Store is a modern luxury vacation home with a focus on sustainability. It also serves as a creative space, attracting daydreamers, adventurers, and individuals looking to relax and be inspired by the beautiful surroundings of rolling hills and expansive skies.

Working with The Grain Store’s guiding principles of simplicity, functionality, and beauty, Studio Lewis was tasked with reinventing and evolving the existing website, ensuring that the online presence echoed the clean lines, open space, and stark beauty of the structure itself. Faced with a wealth of information, the task was to craft a website that exuded simplicity and bold design, while ensuring that the content remained easily understandable and digestible for the end user. 

The result is a website that offers a warm welcome to its visitors, tells the story of The Grain Store, captures the user's imagination, and cultivates a tangible sense of space for people to buy into, all while providing essential information and seamless functionality.
