Aidlin Darling Design has succeeded in creating a sustainably designed suburban home that expansively extends its living spaces out into the landscape
Napa Valley, California, USA
Nestled on a hillside in Northern California, Aidlin Darling Design’s Trestle Residence is a private house that negotiates its complex undulating site with great sensitivity, embodying the agrarian character of an active farm, reflecting the sensibility and ethos of its owners.

Trestle Residence has recently been awarded a 2023 International Architecture Award and has received a 2023 American Architecture Award Honorable Mention by The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Center for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies.
Structures are arranged to exploit the site’s diversity of views, foliage, and topography.
