Zen Barn

Ed and Molly Shill’s Finger Lakes area barn was built for function, form, and fun; a 4,400-square-foot multipurpose barndominium that reflects the past, present, and future. The structure sits adjacent to the shore of Canandaigua Lake and nestles into the surrounding landscape like a long-loved working barn. This contemporary build combines both professional and creative spaces and has one foot firmly in the past through its aesthetic choices. A cupola and weathervane crown the structure, a representation of the farm barns that marked Ed’s youth.
