White Barn Like House With Modern Features

San Francisco Studio Turnbull Griffin Haesloop Architects took cues traditional barns to create this contemporary house in a valley north of agriculture in California.
called Hupomone Ranch, the residence is located in Petaluma, a small historic city with a culture of agriculture and livestock. The name refers to the biblical expression "hupomone" which is usually translated to mean "patient and firm." When the customer acquired the property, the ranch had been fallow for over 30 years. The owners wanted to build a barn house that reflects their commitment to sustainable agriculture, tapping into the natural serenity of the site and build on the sense of place in west Petaluma.
An old shed in ruins was razed to make way for the new home. the residence is complete the hilly landscape and capture views of a coastal mountain range in the distance. the architect of the structure clad in re-sawn cedar, which was painted white, and head of the house with a gable roof. Encompassing 2,500 square foot home has three bedrooms.

The community area with a lounge and dining room is flanked on both sides by "bags" that contain bedrooms and a kitchen. The kitchen has large retractable windows overlooking an orchard and vegetable garden. The bright central area holds a small mezzanine, accessible via a single staircase with railings thin cable.
The interior design was designed by California-based Erin Martin Design. The decor reminds ranches and barns with wooden walls whitewashed in different rooms and cute rustic touches like faux fur for a bedspread or a black metal tank as a cover for the bath, but there was also many modern elements to refresh the decor and suspicion that he is a ranch in the 21st century.
