An early mood board for my next project, a modern barn in Malibu for a dream client. Oh what fun! We are looking to create a family dream home; a place for kids to run and play and parents to throw great parties. The modern barn is open plan with high ceilings, exposed beams, lime plaster walls and extra wide plank flooring. The furniture is classic yet simple; linen slipcovered sofas, tufted ottomans, leather wingback and handcrafted wood cabinetry. Back to basics with an eco tech twist – the Malibu barn will have an energy saving smart system, solar panels and biodynamic vegetable garden!
