For a modern craftsman farmhouse in San Luis Obispo, California, designer Ariana Lovato of Honeycomb Home Design had a custom front door made in alder by a local carpenter. In keeping with the residence’s warm, transitional ambiance, the door is an updated take on classic Stickley style, with its emphasis on craftsmanship, simplicity, and functionality. The design is attractively straightforward, allowing the gorgeous wood to be the star of the show.
