Barbra's Barn

Among the famous movie stars who act like architects is singer acress Barbra Streisand. With her actor husband James Brolin, Streisand traveled to New England to study the architecture of traditional barns and farmhouses. Then she helped design a fanciful barnlike house at Ramirez Canyon Park, her former estate Malibu. She covered the stucco siding with aged wood to recreate the look of an old fashioned barn.
