Croft 3 is a restaurant on a working croft on the Isle of Mull. It is owned and operated by Jeanette Lynn, who previously operated a charming, humble eatery from her home. The building in its current state was adapted by the architectural practice fardaa, but it incorporates a substantial ruined byre built 150 years earlier. The designs for the building were a response to this ruin, to the dramatic landscape beyond, and to the earlier restaurant.The project won the 2024 RIBA Reinvention award and was a winner at the 2024 Civic Trust awards and the RIAS awards.
Edward Farleigh-Dastmalchi will present an overview of Croft 3 before being joined by author Douglas Murphy to discuss the project in more depth. The event coincides with the publication of a new book on Croft 3, which will be available to buy at the event.
