Home of the Week: A tree-topped post-and-beam in Rustic Canyon
Surrounded by mature oaks and trees on two scenic acres, this post-and-beam single-story was tailored to embrace the Southern California lifestyle. Clean lines and walls of glass provide the framework for an agile design that maximizes natural light and removes the boundaries between indoor-outdoor spaces. Inlaid wood floors and ash plywood cabinetry are among the original touches of the Buff, Straub & Hensman-designed home.
