This farmhouse-inspired home designed by Brandon Architects stands out as the only double wide property within its surrounding neighborhood of Costa Mesa, California. The design challenge involved striking a balance between utilizing the spacious lot to its fullest potential while seamlessly blending in with the existing neighborhood context.
Instead of presenting itself as a solitary, monolithic structure, the home embodies a collection of traditional farmhouse styles that were gradually constructed over time.

At the heart of the composition is a limewashed brick building with wooden dormers, reflecting the style of the original home. Adjacent to it, the bedroom wing is designed to appear as an extension of the home, featuring white siding and traditional eave-and-rake detailing. On the opposite side, a wooden barn addition serves as the garage.
To unify the various structures, contemporary elements such as metal siding and porches were introduced. Towards the rear elevation, the contemporary features take a more prominent role, with pocketing glass doors that invite abundant natural light and establish a seamless connection between the living spaces and the entertaining areas in the backyard.
