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. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2023.[2]
Renovation[edit]
The Annenberg Foundation hired Frederick Fisher to renovate the building after they acquired it in November 2009.[3] Fisher kept the building nearly original, only updating the ventilation and light fixtures.

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
