Introduction

Project Type
Contemporary Farmhouse
Size
2,400 SF conditioned
Additional Space
600 SF unconditioned

Familiar in spirit. Contemporary in expression.

Modern Farmhouse draws from Montana's rural architectural traditions without attempting to recreate them. Simple forms and a restrained palette of timber, natural stone, expansive glazing, and wood detailing give the home warmth and familiarity while maintaining a distinctly contemporary character. At 2,400 square feet of conditioned living space, the design prioritizes efficient planning, generous natural light, and strong connections between indoors and out. A central wood-burning fireplace reinforces the home's relationship to gathering and place. The result is deliberately understated — simple in form, warm in material, and designed to age gracefully.

Project Thinking

Form

Familiar Montana farmhouse forms are simplified and carefully proportioned for a distinctly contemporary expression.

Restraint

An efficient 2,400-square-foot conditioned plan and a limited palette of timber, stone, glazing, and wood keep the architecture warm and direct.
