US studio Desai Chia Architecture has merged barn design with "a contemporary sensibility" to create the Clinton Corners House, which features charred cedar facades and a crisp silhouette. As the name suggests, the project is located in Clinton Corners, an agrarian community about 80 miles north of New York City. Situated on a rural property with views of meadows and a forest, the Upstate New York building serves as a nature retreat for urban dwellers.

"The owners' goal was to create a fun, flowing atmosphere in which to raise their children, host guests during the holidays, and enjoy a respite from the city," said Desai Chia Architecture, which is based in Manhattan… To design the house, the architects looked to the area's farm structures."Designed with its agricultural context in mind, the home borrows from vernacular barn vocabulary, but with a contemporary sensibility," the team said… Finishes include white oak flooring and wall panels. Large stretches of glass provide expansive views of the natural setting.
