Mary Barensfeld Architecture

Pennsylvania Residence

Set amidst rolling meadows, this project consists of an addition and renovation to an existing single family residence. The additions seek to quote from the vernacular roof pitches and materials of the existing house while adding new elements of floor to ceiling window walls and modern interior detailing. Structural timber framing, using hand-hewn oak beams from an 1800s timber-framed barn, articulates the new spaces in a way that recalls traditional barn framing. Grading is minimized to allow the meadow to meet the house. Project done in collaboration with YR Architecture + Design
