Stripped Ease

Courtesy of Dwell Magazine

Barbara Hill spent all her money remodeling her 1960s condo

For some architects, minimalism is about sleek surfaces that cost a fortune to achieve. But to Barbara Hill minimalism means living with the blemishes that remain once she's stripped the sleek surfaces away. The raw concrete of Hill's apartment, she notes, is anything but plain: The mottled gray surfaces evoke both the mountains near her weekend house in Marfa, Texas, and the work of minimalist artists, which she began selling more than 30 years ago. In a ceiling with rust stains and nail holes, Hill sees the natural and the man-made in beautiful profusion.
