A Gallatin Valley Montana house designed by JLF Architects for U.S. Senator Max Baucus and his wife, Melodee Hanes, exemplifies the firm’s Regionalist approach, combining historic forms and antique salvage materials to create contemporary houses that respect the landscape. Featured in the annual Big Sky Journal HOME issue, the Baucus house takes JLF’s rustic modern architecture in a prairie direction in keeping with the site’s agricultural history.
