#FromOurDesks: Very excited to share some new projects we have “On the Boards” for 2019. From a custom home in the Berkshires to a modern renovation in the Catskills, we’ve got a fun mix of designs going on in the office. We’re also sharing design process updates on these and other projects on Facebook and LinkedIn, so be sure to find us there!
House for an Artist and a Writer
We are working on a very unique project for which the word “creative” is absolutely the main inspiration. Our clients, one a writer and the other an artist, have asked us to design 2 separate studios to inspire their creative minds at work. On top of this already fun-to-design project, the plan is to renovate an existing garage into the “Artist’s Garage” and an old chicken coop into the “Writer’s Coop.”
Bridge House
Bridging over a creek, this modern addition to an existing cabin in Narrowsburg, NY, creates a new living space and master bedroom suite for our clients…
Quarry Hill
Partially embedded in a steep slope, Quarry Hill is a modern home designed for a young family looking for a weekend escape upstate to enjoy with family and friends. Large windows with views of the surrounding wooded landscape and distant ridgeline make this modestly designed retreat feel spacious and open…
Campion Farms
This new modern home in the Berkshires rises above it’s gently sloping site to take advantage of the stunning southern views of the Taconic Mountains…
House on Porcupine Road
A modern renovation of a traditional cottage located in the Catskill Mountains, the “Porcupine House” has been one of our favorite interior renovation projects so far. Our design blends old with new – highlighting the traditional wood structure and adding key modern elements to the house by opening up the floor plan and connecting the interior spaces both horizontally and vertically. As a response to our clients’ desire for more “curb appeal” for her home, we recently expanded the renovation to the exterior with an addition of a new front entryway and mudroom/laundry room.
Hasbrouck Ranch
We are renovating and expanding a 1970’s quaint ranch-style home in the Hudson Valley with mountain views into a modern home…
DF 3.0
We are currently renovating a unique, contemporary house in Dobbs Ferry, NY, into a home that’s perfectly suited for a couple and their 2 young boys…
Anderson Road
Our clients’ existing house on Anderson Road is a uniquely shaped house with dramatic rooflines. The biggest – and most fun – design challenge is to reorganize the form and spatial layout of the home to function better for our clients’ needs while maintaining (and hopefully enhancing) the character of the original architecture.
