As the great room's pocketing glass doors disappear, the fun begins. Beyond is The Stone Bar, a destination game room with an indoor/outdoor bar and entertaining space behind more disappearing doors.

Mountain views are for morning while the fireplace cozies the room in the evening. The exposed beams, limestone, and rolled steel echo the great room and provide continuity and stunning texture against the white walls.

The Genteel Charm of Modern Farmhouse Architecture Inspired by Architect C.P. Drewett - Iconic Life Magazine

From Drewett Works

Nearly as eye-catching as the Camelback Mountain view is the stunning use of exposed beams, stone, and mill scale steel in this grass roots exploration of farmhouse architecture.

Affectionately called The Magnolia, a reference to C.P. Drewett’s Southern upbringing, this project was a grass roots exploration of farmhouse architecture. Located in Phoenix, Arizona’s idyllic Arcadia neighborhood, the home gives a nod to the area’s citrus orchard history.

Echoing the past while embracing current millennial design expectations, this just-complete speculative family home hosts four bedrooms, an office, open living with a separate “dirty kitchen”, and the Stone Bar. Positioned in the Northwestern portion of the site, the Stone Bar provides entertainment for the interior and exterior spaces. With retracting sliding glass doors and windows above the bar, the space opens up to provide a multipurpose playspace for kids and adults alike.

Nearly as eye-catching as the Camelback Mountain view is the stunning use of exposed beams, stone, and mill scale steel in this grass roots exploration of farmhouse architecture. White painted siding, white interior walls, and warm wood floors communicate a harmonious embrace in this soothing, family-friendly abode.
