The Barn House

Split over two levels, the Barn House features an expansive floor area, though its volume is deliberately camouflaged by a segregation of the house into four undulating blocks capped by pitched roofs. Two courtyards flank opposite corners of the house – one is a monolithic spiral driveway that opens to the street, whilst the second at the rear forms a private retreat. The exterior walls are clad with solid Japanese cedar timber which over the years will achieve a beautiful patina whose gradation tracks the path of the sun.
