This modern lake house is located in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The residence overlooks a mountain lake with expansive mountain views beyond. The design ties the home to its surroundings and enhances the ability to experience both home and nature together. The entry level serves as the primary living space and is situated into three groupings; the Great Room, the Guest Suite and the Master Suite. A glass connector links the Master Suite, providing privacy and the opportunity for terrace and garden areas. Won a 2013 AIANC Design Award. Featured in the Austrian magazine, More Than Design.

The two buildings are connected by a hallway with floor to ceiling windows, which serves as a glazed link between the private and public areas. It offers views to the surrounding landscape, and the feeling of leaving one building for another.

An envelope of natural cedar creates a warm, welcoming embrace as you enter this beautiful lakefront home. The cedar shingles in the covered entry, stained black shingles on the dormer above, and black clapboard siding will each weather differently and improve their characters with age.

This Multi-purpose shed was designed to accompany an existing modern waterfront property on the north shore of Montauk, NY. The program called for the shed to be used for bike storage and access, and, a yoga studio. The shed has a highly ventilated basement which houses the pool equipment for an existing side yard dunking pool. Other features included: surfboard storage, an outdoor shower and decorative walkways, fencing and gates.

The identity of the exterior architecture is heavy, grounded, dark, and subtly reflective. The gabled geometries stack and shift to clearly identify he modest, covered entry portal.

Street view with flush garage door clad in charcoal-stained reclaimed wood. A cantilevered wood screen creates a private entrance by passing underneath the offset vertical aligned western red cedar timbers of the brise-soleil. The offset wood screen creates a path between the exterior walls of the house and the exterior planters (see next photo) which leads to a quiet pond at the top of the low-rise concrete steps and eventually the entry door to the residence: A vertical courtyard / garden buffer. The wood screen creates privacy from the interior to the street while also softening the strong, afternoon direct natural light to the entry, kitchen, living room, bathroom and study.

Fir trees from the island were milled nearby and used to clad both structures. The exterior siding is a reverse board and batten system with varied vertical board widths; a nod to traditional siding methods while giving the cabins a clean modern look. The dark stain chosen for the exterior allows for some of the natural red hues of the fir to come through while also allowing the structures to recede into the trees and shadows.

Another shot of the ProTEK painters hard at work. From this angle you get an even better idea of the difference the new black color makes to the house. On the right-hand side, just above the window, you can see some damage/weathering to the wall. The team will finish these repairs, with methods and material appropriate to the damage and siding type, before painting the area. This ensures the paint adheres to the wall.

The new owners of this Sussex property wanted to completely change the external and internal image of a classic single storey rectangular brick bungalow. We worked with our clients to give them an extension that was fully glazed allowing a more direct link with the garden and the wow factor that they wanted. The external elevations were transformed with a new entrance hall and canopy. All the walls were to be clad in charred timber boarding to give the elevations a sharp modern feel.

Project Overview: (via Architectural Record) The four-story house was designed to fit into the compact site on the footprint of a pre-existing house that was razed because it was structurally unsound. Architect Robert Gurney designed the four-bedroom, three-bathroom house to appear to be two-stories when viewed from the street. At the rear, facing the Potomac River, the steep grade allowed the architect to add two additional floors below the main house with minimum intrusion into the wooded site. The house is anchored by two concrete end walls, extending the four-story height. Wood framed walls clad in charred Shou Sugi Ban connect the two concrete walls on the street side of the house while the rear elevation, facing southwest, is largely glass.
