I love The Barn Rooms At The Farmhouse Inn


Fresh food and fresh interiors.


Not because I am a horsewoman.....
but I love the use of painted sliding/rolling barn doors
 in residential design.


I have used this element ( the rolling door )
in several difficult situations where a room needed to be divided
yet a pocket door was out of the question.
Also I have used this for closet doors.
It looks sharp.
I promise.



It is a pocket door {on the outside}
that adds a great deal of character to a space.
And they don't need to be white, or in the trim color of a room.
Try lacquered Chinese red.
Talk about the 'WOW FACTOR'
...... that's a guarantee! 

I love them!!!

Your thoughts?

ps
... it doesn't need to be a barn door.
I have had rolling doors done with stained glass, frosted glass.....
the possibilities are endless.
The way the door is finished and the handles
 will determine the design direction that you wish to go.

"The inn’s owners, fifth-generation Sonoma County farmers (and siblings) Catherine and Joe Bartolomei, know that you can’t start a day of hard work without a good breakfast. So I begin the day with apple sweetened ever so lightly with autumn honey."

  2. I really dig that idea It looks fantastic and i could also see it used in a more rustic type way as well with the rough distressed wood of an aging barn.
    Very clever, and looks functional.

  3. I adore barn doors too! So handsome without imposing on a space. I have a great link at TLPC for barn door hardware.
    They are also wonderful in a narrow hallway.
    Now i'm heading over to this charming Inn.
    Thanks for a great post Renee!
