This Barn design started as a very conceptual sketch of a studio/living space nestled
amongst the evergreens on the site. This space will be used for an art gallery on the first
floor and studio/living space on the second floor. The dense evergreen forest protects this
home from extreme winter storms and driving wind.

Simple and
natural
materials
were a must
for this
project to be
harmonious
with the
customer's
living
philosophy.

This Design is the
result of business
venture, of creating
an atmosphere of a
time gone by, where
quality of a
traditional fashion
houses functions
both great and
small. This high
visibility location
needed a simple yet
elegant form, which
holds true for the
site through the
final details. All of
the design principles
are the same, no
matter what the
project size may be.

A wonderful Douglas Fir barn
built in a serene and remote
location. Many generations
will come to appreciate the
expansive spaces and the
quality of the detailed
joinery.

Barn built as Phase I of a two phase project.
The barn has 2 parking spaces and a light filled
staircase on the first floor. The second floor
functions as a two bedroom apartment with a
sleeping loft above. This is the anchor for the
main house
being built
in the next
phase.
