The crisp, pure sunlight of California’s wine region sparked the concept for this century-old former hay barn–a contemplation on light–while the context of the surrounding vineyards and site-specific art installations challenged us to provocatively transform the structure for uses including community gatherings, family dinners, and fitness. The barn’s wood-slatted shell screens sunbeams, creating ever-changing patterns on the new concrete floors. Internal illumination turns the barn into a lantern at night. Two new opposing glass volumes with mirrored-walls reflect both the spaces within, as well as the outdoors. Standing in the space, you feel an expansiveness as the reflective interior yields to the infinite views of the surrounding vineyards, gardens, old-growth trees, and wildlife beyond the barn walls.
