esigned as a family home ideal for gathering and entertaining, this modern addition was meant to complement the existing structure without overpowering the original Prince Edward County home. Through neutral design choices juxtaposed against the charm and character of the 19th century, the addition project was designed by Farmhouse Design Studio’s project coordinator Evan Nash–just prior to the studio’s formation in 2019. “We formed Farmhouse Design 14
Studio because we wanted to introduce the architectural design process into what Evan had started with this project , and offer it as a service,” says designer Gabriel Ramirez . Based in Prince Edward County, the studio focuses on residential design with an ethos that seeks to embed environmentally conscious building and design into the current reshaping and development that ’s become prevalent in the County. “A very heavy emphasis was put on respecting the beauty and heritage of the original building,” says Nash.
