Cooler ranch is an uglier ranch.

I love that cooler ranch - finally something that looks at a better way to renovate these homes for modern family life, rather than tearing them down to start over. And their landscaping is inspired.

Seeing these before and after's gives me hope for my house. Someday we'll live in and "after" as well.

I also like the "Cooler Ranch" - particularly the creative reuse of an older building, and those black cedar panels are beautiful.
