Simple white forms are combined to reflect the client's desire for a home with a timeless country feel. The main body of the house is a basic steep-pitch single ridge rectangle. A series of cut-in gables give light, ventilation, and view access to second floor rooms while simultaneously meeting strict height limitations imposed on the site. Secondary uses of garage and guest bedroom suites are housed in a separate gambrel roofed barn element that relates to the overall equestrian ranch use of the property.
