This humble wood clad property is the epitome of cottage chic! The cabin design and style by the architects at Design and style Blitz incorporated a 500-sq.-ft. extension to an current 600-sq.-ft. residence, originally built in 1942 as a summer home right here in west Sebastopol, California. This casual holiday house was renovated and revived with contemporary function and flair, and now serves as the family’;s principal residence. The organic property design and style was inspired by its forest surroundings, setting the tone for the look and feel of the timber residence, which is that of natural supplies, light and views, with a distinctly modern edge when it came to furnishings and art.

According to the architects, “From the outset it was clear that this project had the possible to be something much more than a straightforward addition, and that the whole house could be transformed into some thing extremely special. Amongst redwoods and in a beautiful location adjacent to a seasonal creek, we took the opportunity to celebrate the setting and create a peaceful retreat for the owners.”
