Project Description
The goal for this project was to design an environmentally responsible home while respecting the client’s request for a traditional family home in a historic neighborhood. The resulting design is an elegant yet informal home based on traditional shingle-style forms with a visually open, but classic, interior. Finishes and furnishings were chosen to feel inviting and intimate for everyday family use, yet sophisticated enough for formal entertaining. The home was carefully sited on its sloping corner lot, using stepped terraces to anchor the house and create separate areas for the pool, yard and garage entrance.
