Sycamore Project

Funky Modern Farmhouse

Pleasanton, California

Casual, approachable, and unexpected, the indoor-outdoor flow of this Pleasanton home epitomizes California living. CHID layered an edgy, funky spin on modern farmhouse furnishings to serve the stylish, yet laid-back lifestyle of a wonderful family and their English Bulldog. This new build project was completed in collaboration with design/build firm, Ridgecrest Designs.
