History
Permaculture farms are unique spaces where the environment informs a harmonious, sustainable and productive growing cycle.

Assumption
With the farm well into production, this property was ready for its main residence. A master plan for the property had already informed a location for the home. MVP was chosen out of five architectural firms to create this dwelling and accompanying livestock barn.

Approach
Harvested timber from the property provided the bones for this high-performance design which required passive and active solar systems.

Alchemy
This high-performance, north-facing home pairs a New England farmhouse aesthetic with modern elements such as lower-level glass walls, a deck, and an upper level porch, allowing for multiple views of the entire farm.
