Calistoga Weekend House by Signum Architecture
Set in the mountains between Sonoma and Napa, this weekend home is just 10 minutes from downtown Calistoga, but it seems much further removed.
Partners Jarrod Denton and Juancarlos Fernandez met early in their careers while working together at a Napa Valley architecture firm. Due to similarities in values and work ethic, they combined their talents to found Signum Architecture in early 2011. Signum is a full-service architectural firm, focused on winery, residential and custom commercial projects.

Casa Cielo Azul includes 2 bedrooms, 2 ½ baths, office, wine cellar and covered terrace. Floor to ceiling glass in the kitchen, where the owners spend most of their time, fills the room with natural light. Indoor materials and floor treatments flow out onto an open terrace, further blurring the boundary between outdoors and in.
