This weekend house in the rolling fields of the Hudson Valley was designed around a farmyard. We incorporated the ruins of an old barn foundation into one side of the farmyard and grouped new buildings around two other sides to define an arrival court. The new centerpiece of the arrival court is a tower clad on its lower story with red barn boards. On axis with the driveway, the tower serves as the entrance and links the main wing of the house to the guest quarters. The entry under the tower is like a breezeway with big barn doors on each side and the dark interior finishes of a tack room. The tower is a vertical foil to the main wing of the house, whose emphatically horizontal all-encompassing hipped roof allows the house to nestle comfortably into the hillside.
The main house presents a private face to the courtyard but opens up on the other side with expansive bay windows that command a view of a new pond in the middle distance and the rolling hills beyond.
Our client was enthusiastic about taking advantage of renewable energy sources such as geothermal heat and photovoltaic cells, which are out of sight in the bushes. We incorporated these green technologies without calling attention to them.

Time had stood still at this 1970s ranch in Armonk when the owners invited us to collaborate with them to transform it into a modern, light-filled home for their young family. The budget was lean, so economy was a primary consideration for every design decision. The challenge was to identify the modest home’s virtues – vaulted ceilings and a lovely backyard – and accentuate them by strategically optimizing available funds.
We were tasked with rectifying a dysfunctional interior stair, connecting to the outdoors with new large windows, and updating the exterior. We focused our attention on a finite set of architectural moves which would have the biggest impact and improve our clients’ daily experience of the home. Detailing was kept simple, using common grade materials and standard components. All exterior walls were revamped with new windows and siding. Although these materials were not particularly costly, thoughtful layout of boards, battens, and openings produced a cohesive, rigorous composition at each facade.
Since the budget would not cover the homeowners’ complete wish list, some items were bracketed for subsequent phases. The challenge was to establish a framework that would allow future work – including a new roof and kitchen renovation – to proceed smoothly.
The homeowners, both scientists, were enthusiastic collaborators, contributing their outstanding design sensibilities to selection of fixtures and finishes. Construction ended just in time for the arrival of their baby – and with that, the transformation of their family home was complete.

Scene II: Mom sneaks back to buy it, hides it at grandma's for three months and promises her daughter a new room for her 11th birthday.
Scene III: Mom calls SYI.
Scene IV: A drab exercise room with must-go carpet is Utterly. Transformed.
All because of a chair.
