Haas Valley Farm, Potosi
The brief for Haas Valley Farm was to design a weekend getaway for a Chicago area family on property that has been in their extended family for generations. Tall and thin, the Haas Valley Farm Residence perches on its site which is centered in the Driftless Area, a small pocket of the Midwest so named because the glaciers skipped over the region, leaving a surprising landscape of rolling hills and deep valleys bisected by the Mississippi River.
