Although this house was newly developed, it evokes the history of an old barn that has been transformed into a residence. The exterior facade was painted a dark hue, transitioning to a whitewashed finish over natural materials on the interior.

The barn-style home was designed to capture views of the mountains through the front door, and outbuildings were constructed to embody the essence of a barn.

The stone chimney anchoring the porch suggests that a stone wall once concealed a shed. Raw materials exude a sense of casualness, bringing authenticity and an organic quality that is relatable.
