'The Weekend House: A Farmhouse Style Cottage Designed by Dibello Architects The New Home Vision The clients owned an existing small home on the lot and would visit on weekends. They wanted a new, charming house that fit the scale and character of the neighborhood but also had ample space for entertaining. They desired a new home that could comfortably accommodate overnight guests. The Home Design Challenge The clients were intrigued by a small cottage that Dale Dibello designed several years ago which fit on a 25’ wide lot. Because their current lot was narrow within an existing neighborhood, they enlisted our help in requesting a variance from the city for a larger footprint than the building-line setbacks would allow. The Style of Architecture The clients wanted a modern farmhouse style, mainly inspired by the Southern Living “Sugarberry Cottage.” They also liked the design aesthetic of Chip and Joanna Gaines. They desired a small front porch at the entry of the home, a painted wood exterior, and metal roof.
