Osborn and Wagner began with restoration of the farmhouse.The pair came into the process with several design ideas that would make the experience of the buildings more pleasing. From the start, they knew that the windows had to be authentic — shuttered, secured with Cremone bolts, and able to open inward. As an additional touch, instead of permanent exterior window screens that give buildings a dull look, Hirschmann integrated their imported retractable screen product into all the in-swing French Casement windows for a screen on demand solution.
