Terraced into the hillside, South Mountain House is separated into two volumes to give family and guests spatial autonomy.

Upon entry at the highest point, sightlines are immediately established downhill through the lower volume to views of the surrounding woods and creek below. See more…

Cabin for a Goldsmith - Modern Cabin Design

We’ve designed a mini-modern cabin for our client to build on his property overlooking a creek as a residence for his apprentice. While Cabin for a Goldsmith is a small and simple house, efficient use of space and materials make for a comfortable and unique dwelling. The zinc roof wraps down the side of the cabin, providing privacy from passing cars and giving the cabin a durable shell that will keep it protected through all seasons. See more…

Bexley House - Modern Renovation in Columbus Ohio

Our renovation of Bexley House includes adding a guest suite, revamping the outdoor space to create a spacious yet private place to entertain, and redesigning the main bedroom and bathroom. The guest suite incorporates large dormer windows that overlook the backyard and open up the space within the suite. In the backyard, we’ve added terrace steps to address the dual purpose of providing privacy and seating areas. The main bedroom is inspired by home office setups with multiple options for desk and seating arrangements and will have a larger closet and bathroom space.

Cold Spring Creek House - Modern home renovation upstate New York

Cold Spring Creek House originated as a 4 bedroom, 4 bath barn house, but has undergone multiple renovations and additions. The new owners want to give the house a much needed facelift without negating the charm of the barn house. The biggest moves of our proposed renovation will include new exterior siding and windows, an open layout kitchen that engages the adjacent living spaces, and the addition of a new main suite off of the northern facade.
