This contemporary farmhouse was designed for a client that loves to cook and entertain in the open air.
Just over the hedge from the pool are acres of Napa vineyard with grapes ripening in the sun.
The dining room, living room, outdoor seating area, and pool are all aligned on axis with the these sliding glass doors.
A large kitchen with zinc countertops is complemented by a trellis-protected exterior food preparation area with free-standing fireplace.
The building’s form and materials respond to simple vernacular farm buildings in the Napa region through the use of metal roofs and board & batten siding.
