Gorgeous country home in Oregon features barn-like details

rustic-home-exterior

Olson Kundig Architects created a beautiful country garden home in Portland, Oregon that respects the lush environment that surrounds it. This 5,300 square foot dwelling was designed to maximize views of the surrounding gardens and rolling hills. It also provides warm and comfortable spaces to meet the lifestyle needs of a multi-generational family. The exterior facade is clad in reclaimed barnwood, evoking a farm structure or even a greenhouse with its gridded fenestration and high pitched roof. Tall windows flank either side of the main volume, flooding the interiors with natural light.

Above: To enter into this country home, one travels underneath beautiful leafy trellis to the front door. Stepping inside reveals a vista through the living room and beyond to a lush hillside. A long corridor provides a separation between the more intimate bedroom spaces and the main living spaces. This home is designed for a master gardener, so it was important that the gardens be visible from every room.

A layering of textures nods to the outdoors gardens, while exposed timber ceilings in the main room lends a sense of rustic refinement. A floor-to-ceiling stone clad fireplace provides a visual separation between the living room and the den.
