About This Project

The Haas Valley Farm Residence, completed in 2019, exemplifies a harmonious blend of contemporary design and natural beauty, situated in the enchanting Driftless Area of the Midwest. This distinctive home, characterized by its tall and thin silhouette, stretches gracefully across a meadow, offering breathtaking views of the nearby Grant River and limestone ridges. The architectural form is both straightforward and intricate, incorporating dynamic jogs and interconnections that delineate the internal spaces. A signature feature of the design is the stair slice, which serves as a subtle boundary between the more private sleeping and bathing areas and the vibrant social spaces of the house. The heart of the residence is the expansive double-story great room, where natural light floods in through large windows, creating an inviting atmosphere for relaxation and gatherings. A low roof extends outward, providing a sheltered screened porch that seamlessly integrates indoor and outdoor living. The kitchen, strategically located beneath an upstairs bedroom, fosters a sense of coziness and connectivity to the living and dining areas, making it ideal for entertaining guests. In the bathroom, a stunning interplay of materials showcases the craftsmanship and attention to detail that defines Haas Valley Farm. Handmade tiles in rich hues contrast elegantly with crisp white plumbing fixtures, creating a striking focal point that frames a picturesque view of a magnificent 200+ year old oak tree just outside. This thoughtful design choice not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of the space but also establishes a deep connection with the surrounding landscape. The outcome of the Haas Valley Farm project is a weekend retreat that embodies both modern elegance and rustic charm, making it a refuge for those seeking solace in nature. The careful selection of materials and the deliberate design choices reflect a commitment to quality and sustainability, ensuring that this residence will serve as a cherished getaway for years to come.
