This is a beautiful modern farmhouse in Palo Alto, CA. It consists of a central entry section flanked by two wings. The entry section is set 6 feet in compared to the wide wings, which provides protection for the main entry door. The entry door is custom made from solid walnut and is accompanied by two sidelights. Above the entry door is a round window which provide extra light for the hallway and creates a focal point in the facade. Behind the left facade of the home are two bedrooms with large windows that are arranged in a symmetrical pattern on the facade of that wing. Behind the right facade are two closets and two bathrooms, each with smaller window, which are also arranged symmetrically. The different window arrangements on the two wings breaks the monotony of the wide facade. Yet, the inherent symmetry in each part of the facade brings a calming order to the building. The exterior is clad with 10" wood siding, installed vertically. Vertical (as opposed to horizontal) siding This gives the home a more elegant and elevated look, which comes at the cost of a more expensive installation, as blocking is required inside the wall around the entire house. The home has ceder shingles. Cedar shingles were chosen instead of shakes, as shingles are thinner and provide a more smooth and elegant look for this sophisticated residence. The home is surrounded by a 30" tall fence which is clad with the same vertical siding as the home, creating a sense of harmony. fence posts are from solid granite, which is also the same material used for the exterior walking surfaces and the entry landing.

Folk Victorian houses often feature clapboard as the dominant exterior cladding. Vinyl siding clapboard comes in a variety of configurations, including 3" to 8" reveals. When using standard clapboard on the main body, gables or accent walls may feature board & batten siding, shakes, shingles, or shapes. All these options are available in vinyl.

This mountain modern cabin outside of Asheville serves as a simple retreat for our clients. They are passionate about fly-fishing, so when they found property with a designated trout stream, it was a natural fit. We developed a design that allows them to experience both views and sounds of the creek and a relaxed style for the cabin - a counterpoint to their full-time residence.
