This rambler-style homestead was designed from the ground up by Studio McGee and built by Gather Projects, located in Arizona. The mix of dark and light carries from the exterior to the interior. The designer selected dark dormer windows, bronze windows, a metal roof, and fir wood with a clear sealer for the columns and awnings over the windows.
Step inside through a dutch door and you are greeted by a sunlit entry with soaring ceilings and a window that is one of the dormer windows that you see outside. Although small, this inviting entry will greet your guests with the feeling of warmth from the wood beams and charming furniture details such as the mirror with a leather strap to open up this small space.

The light-filled interiors have added warmth thanks to the wood flooring, architectural details on walls, and a layering of textures.
