Project Spotlight: Linwood Guesthouse

A JOURNEY FROM SKETCH TO 3D. All projects begin the same way here at Hayne, with some yellow trace paper and a pencil.  From there, by identifying the project restrictions, Robbin Hayne will use layers and layers of trace (most of which end up crumpled on the office floor) to work through the design process…
