BOBBY MCALPINE ~ DESIGN IN WINE COUNTRY

Cofounders Don and Rela Gleason of Summer Hill furnishings called on architects Bobby McAlpine and John Sease of McAlpine Tankersley when they decided to build their home, Casa Kulanu, in the northern California town of Calistoga. The three pavilions include a main structure and two pavilions built using McAlpine's trademark stucco, wood, stone, and numerous windows.

The main structure includes the living room, dining room, sun room, kitchen, library, master bedroom suite, and a guest suite. One of the ancillary pavilions houses a garage with an office/studio with bath above and a media room and wine cellar below. The other ancillary is a garage with a two-bedroom suite for visitors above.

It is no secret that I admire the work of Montgomery's Bobby McAlpine. His attention to detail is impeccable, and every home he designs is a masterpiece. ENJOY!
