The Barn is a house built by architect A. Quincy Jones in 1950 as his personal home and office. In 2009 Jones' wife sold the house for US$2,000,000 to the Annenberg Foundation,[1] which uses the building as office space and for private events.

Renovation

The Annenberg Foundation hired Frederick Fisher to renovate the building after they acquired it in November 2009.[2] Fisher kept the building nearly original, only updating the ventilation and light fixtures.
