Dietemann Design
Great Barrington
Great Barrington House

 

Jury comments:
" The interiors are wonderful.  Great use of color. Huge value for a modest home.

 

Uses the site very well.  The idea is well realized and detailed.  Enjoyed the caboose imagery.

 

The house has a wonderful sense of humor to it.  Sustainable features such as a natural landscape instead of a lawn and a location near town.

 

Built on a site that was considered a “throwaway”."
