This arrangement of simply gabled, rustically clad forms was designed to give the owner’s a sense of being connected to the rolling hills of this northern California reserve. The individual barn-like buildings are connected by flat roofed links, creating courtyards and microclimate of shade and cool that allow for full immersion into the specificity of the surroundings. The project was taken through the approval process but remains unbuilt to date due to the owner’s relocation to the east coast.
