The stunning Modern Barn project is an elegant, modern home within a reconstructed dairy barn situated in Milton, Connecticut. This historic gambrel barn was partially destroyed in a fire. The owners commissioned architecture studio Specht Harpman to design the rebuild so that the barn would remain contextual with the other buildings on the 8-acre site, while the interior was radically restructured to create a free and open volume that works as a modern, loft-like living space. Polished concrete floors blend with exposed maple framing and custom woodwork to create a warm, comfortable, and elegant place for living and entertaining.
