This new home in North Hatley, Quebec, takes a modern approach to the original farmhouse while still providing the comforts of a farmhouse. The homeowners’ vision was to pay homage to the old barns in this area but also create a clean interior space. Rodeo reclaimed hemlock was chosen for the exterior cladding to replicate the barn look; this product is sourced from old barns and buildings throughout Ontario where it acquires a grey aged look and texture from up to a century worth of weathering on the exterior of the barns. Inside to keep in line with a more clean and modern approach, Storm European oak wide plank was used to add a sophisticated design aspect while keeping the farmhouse feel of wood plank floors.
