An A-Frame is Reborn in the California Redwoods

In Western Sonoma, San Francisco–based architects Brit and Daniel Epperson have gracefully ushered a 1974 simple geometric form into a modern context.

An A-Frame is Reborn in the California Redwoods

In Western Sonoma, San Francisco–based architects Brit and Daniel Epperson have gracefully ushered a 1974 simple geometric form into a modern context. Keeping its wonderfully steeped angles, the space is now a bright and airy contrast to the surrounding woods' sentinel earthen giants. Deservedly, it has been featured in DWELL Magazine.

Come wrap yourself in its beauty and stillness, with light oak flooring and alabaster paint that soaks up the forest’s limited direct sunlight and magnificent floor-to-ceiling windows. The stovepipe of the stone-tiled hearth is a feat of height all its own.

The owners are furniture lovers, and each piece was slowly, thoroughly considered. All of the home’s artworks came from Creativity Explored, a nonprofit collective that partners with developmentally-challenged artists.

A sleek new kitchen softens the blackened steel work surfaces with a pink, capsule-shaped table in bar height and organically strung light fixtures.

"Having this brilliant white box in the woods allowed us to maximize the effect of any sunlight we could bring in," one of the owners told DWELL. "So that became the shell within which we were working, and we could play with contrasts or soft tones of color."

Caz Cabin is the kind of place to catch some z’s, sip a local Russian River red, and play in the trees. Pack (and live) lightly.

This two-story cabin in Sonoma sleeps up to four guests in two bedrooms. On the ground level, there is a private one-bedroom suite with a plush queen-size bed. The en-suite bathroom is configured with a walk-in shower. This level offers one more bathroom with a tub/shower combination. Both bathrooms feature Le Labo and Meraki soaps.

On the second floor loft, there is a second bedroom with a king-size bed. There is also a comfy sleeper sofa, perfect for a child or extra guest. Sway in the hand-woven hammock and stare out at the trees.

The cabin is heated by its antique wood-burning stove, with firewood is provided for your convenience. Supplemental heat comes from propane wall heater.

The kitchen is equipped with high-end Fisher & Paykel appliances, including two refrigerator drawers (that switch between fridge, freezer, or bottle chill with the touch of a button).

WINE COUNTRY AND FOREST WONDERLAND

Caz Cabin is located seven miles from the coast in the Sonoma County township of Cazadero, which has historically been a logging area and is also known for great wines, views and the Old Cazadero Classic bike race. The home is perched on Austin Creek, a fish spawning tributary that meanders its way into the Russian River.

Come explore miles of unspoiled ancient Redwood forestland, with plenty of outdoor activities to enjoy. Many of the finest Sonoma wineries are within a short drive, and the charming town of Guerneville features some of the best restaurants, shopping, cafes and wine tastings. Armstrong Woods State Park and Austin Creek recreation area are just a short drive and offer beautiful vantage points across the valley.
