Hi,
I am looking for some examples of modern farmhouse style buildings-- kind of a combination of traditional rustic, barnlike, or rural with modern twist. Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated.
I would suggest that you look up (while I look up at the shelves of my personal library):
Peter Bohlin of Bohlin Cywinski Jackson
Jeremiah Eck (book The Distinctive Home)
James Cutler
Mockbee Coker (firm of Sam Mockbee when he was alive)
Clark & Menefee (maybe no longer a firm)
Marlon Blackwell
Mark Hutker
Dennis Wedlick
Sara Susanka
David Samela (http://www.jacksonmeadow.com/)
Fernau & Hartman
This is a Barn I worked on this this past winter: It is an organic food
store along with local craftman crafts. It is operated by people with turmantic brain injuries. The original barn was from the late 1800's.
We dismantel it and used two other barns to bring it back to this state along with alot of tabacco barn siding.
that washburn project reminded me of this one by maya lin
the langston hughes library (1999) in clinton, tennessee: an 1860s barn and a couple of corn cribs adapted into a 1200sf reading room for a collection of research materials on civil rights

Let me know what you like...
hmm. i'm not sure if this helps... i could only think of
john pawson's tilty barn in the UK
charles rose's straitsview farm here in the pac NW (with landscape by michael van valkenburgh)
whoa, that didn't work out well...
clark + menefee dissolved in '98, though both are still @ UVA. the coker house might be on a farm, but i can't remember...

This isn't a farmhouse, but these guys have got it going on.
They know material sensibility better than most carpenters.

an "older modern" worth checking out is William Wurster - clean work that is balanced between modern aspirations and traditional forms.
Sea Ranch is still a good reference for this:
Somis Hay Barn www.spfa.com
