This “bunkhouse” is a large entertaining space with two bedrooms. It’s attached to the main house by a long, wide porch. The exaggerated farmhouse doors and elevated, pointed roofl ine off er a new spin on the classic farmhouse structure.
Trends come and go, but timeless design endures. When designing your forever home, “hold fast to certain eternal truths like simplicity, elegance, and comfort.” In his book The Nature of Home: Creating Timeless Houses, architect Jeffrey Dungan shares the importance of rich textures and clean lines when building homes that last.
A cathedral ceiling and stained-cedar beams make this living room a powerful inside environment. The sidewall windows, which Dungan considers the “eyes to the soul of a house,” bring in light and wide views of nature.
