Stone entry vestibule on a modern farmhouse called the “art barn”.

Art Barn is a two-story modern farmhouse-inspired home designed by Holder Parlette Architecture, located in Napa Valley, California. Nestled in the heart of wine country, this private residence offers a swimming pool/pool house and detached garage.

This stunning home is a modern blend of exposed steel, wood, and stone. Structural systems were designed to support the floor-to-ceiling glass, expansive clerestory windows, butterfly shade trellises, and open floor plans.

“A modern interpretation of simple Napa agricultural structures allows for a clean, bold house which makes a more complex statement about the regional identity,” states the architects. “Locally quarried, Napa Sayar stone, recycled barn wood and Cor-Ten corrugated roofing help root this house in the local context of modest, working structures of the Napa Valley.”

There are three stone-clad pavilions on the property, which helps to organize the site plan around this fabulous two-story, five-bedroom “art barn” residence and pool with a garden.
