PLANT CITY, FLORIDA

Modern Barn Residence

THE DETAILS

This project was hands down one of the most unique projects our studio has ever been asked to help design. The residence was originally an aluminum storage barn nestled in the oak trees just outside of Plant City, FL. My clients had just sold their large Mediterranean style home and were itching for a project and wanted to build a home that was not only unique but captured their personalities better than their previous home.

This was a team effort project - the clients, contractor and our studio worked hand in hand to help bring the vision to life.

The barn was emptied of its tractors and drywall was put up to start the journey of the residence. Additional buildings were incorporated to add the additional spaces that they needed for bedrooms and bathrooms. The clients and I had many meetings and spent time together traveling looking for all the perfect pieces to make this house a home. One of the best compliments came at the end of the project when the client exclaimed, “Never have I lived in a house that has felt more like me!” To a designer, that is the ultimate and makes the journey from start to finish that much better.
