In the early 50s, Herbert and Ruth Weiss attended a lecture by Bauhaus founder Walter Gropius hosted by MIT. They were fascinated by Gropius’ description of the ‘Five Fields’ community of 60 houses he and his firm, The Architect’s Collaborative (TAC), were designing in Lexington, MA. The Weiss’ fell in love with Gropius’ vision for a grouping of 60 modern houses to be arrayed around eight acres of common land that would include a community pool and playground. They soon had one of their own.The original, TAC-designed house was a single-slope design with a modest footprint of 800 square feet. Several years later, the Weiss’ commissioned modernist architect Henry Hoover to add a living room wing and new entry to the house. Hoover’s design included a wall of glass which opens to a charming pond carved into the outcropping of granite ledge. After living in the house for 65 years, the Weiss’ sold the house to our client, who asked us to design a renovation that would respect the integrity of the vintage modern architecture. Our design focused on reorienting the kitchen, opening it up to the family room. The bedroom wing was redesigned to create a principal bedroom with en-suite bathroom. Interior finishes were edited to create a more fluid relationship between the original TAC home and Hoover’s addition. We worked closely with the builder, Patriot Custom Homes, to install Solar electric panels married to an efficient heat pump heating and cooling system. These updates integrate modern touches and high efficiency into a striking piece of architectural history.

Full gut renovation and facade restoration of an historic 1850s wood-frame townhouse. The current owners found the building as a decaying, vacant SRO (single room occupancy) dwelling with approximately 9 rooming units. The building has been converted to a two-family house with an owner’s triplex over a garden-level rental. Due to the fact that the very little of the existing structure was serviceable and the change of occupancy necessitated major layout changes, nC2 was able to propose an especially creative and unconventional design for the triplex. This design centers around a continuous 2-run stair which connects the main living space on the parlor level to a family room on the second floor and, finally, to a studio space on the third, thus linking all of the public and semi-public spaces with a single architectural element. This scheme is further enhanced through the use of a wood-slat screen wall which functions as a guardrail for the stair as well as a light-filtering element tying all of the floors together, as well its culmination in a 5’ x 25’ skylight.

Un appartement de caractère entièrement repensé pour accueillir un jeune couple parisien. Ce projet a fait l'objet de nombreuses réflexions spatiales pour aboutir à une implantation idéale. Le choix de matériaux contemporains associés à des touches de couleurs permet de moderniser l'appartement tout en conservant son cachet originel. Par un principe de "meuble cloison" la cuisine intégrée trouve naturellement sa place dans l'espace à vivre. L'accès à la chambre parentale se fait par une double porte décorative chinée. L'atmosphère y est plus cocooning, de part l'intégration d'un papier peint d'inspiration végétale en tête de lit, ainsi que l'utilisation prédominante du noyer pour la menuiserie et la claustra qui délimite l'espace nuit du dressing. La salle de bain, agréable et chic est parée de blanc et de rose poudré et réhaussée d'une pointe de laiton. Le sol terrazzo, avec ses inclusions de nacre, vient parfaire la décoration.
