Night scene with step light showing composite deck step onto slim, long red flagstone to adjacent lawn. Spot lights on White Spruce on right, Concord grape vine to left and Red Maple in rear bed. An enchanted view in the evening.

The rear garden is in full sun except under the tree canopy. Here we used more color by adding red and pinks to eh color palette. We have a large terrace, play area for the two girls, a wild flower meadow, grapes, raspberries, blueberries and vegetable garden in raised beds.

The existing concrete water tank, with interior dimensions 50 foot diameter and 28 foot height, was built in 1907 on a high south facing ridge overlooking the City of New Haven and Long Island Sound. Monumental red rock formations of similar height, East Rock and West Rock, define the natural landscape boundaries of the City and frame the views from this high point. The evolution of the neighborhood toward residential uses and other elements such as the four columns of the interior supporting the roof on a two way grid of beams as well as the size of the tank made it ideal for reuse as a dwelling. By insulating the 10" thick roof slab and the 18" thick concrete walls, on the outside maximum advantage is taken of the thermal mass. The approach from the street is by a stair on the east side which rises 9 feet to the 100 foot square level area on which the water tank sits. To the west of the stair at street level is the garage, once an underground vault for valves. A climb to the top reveals views over the City and Sound while the porch to the left invites entry. At the center, a two story high library, bounded by four columns and lit by four circular skylights, orders the scheme. The living room within the two story high 'bow' to the south opens to a porch shaded by grape vines which replaced an earlier canvas roof. The kitchen to the east is intended as the primary eating place although the library can be the focus of larger feasts. The studio to the north is lit by a two story high glass wall and bounded by offices. On the second floor, the bedrooms flank the upper library space while bathrooms and dressing rooms are placed to the north. The deep existing wall and projecting bays create window seats at east and west openings. At all other openings the glass is set within the wall. The roof is accessed from outside by the spiral stair in the existing octagonal tower.

Color coordinating the menu with table decor creates an enticing setting for guests. A Southern style chicken salad with red grapes and a side of asparagus with chopped egg vinaigrette were chosen as the perfect complementary colors for the blue and white table setting palette. Jan Willadsen

Bottle of red wine with two half-filled glasses at sunset. The intention is to let you see through a window the atmosphere of a vineyard at sunset, the clusters of grapes around reinforce the idea and the large space of clear glass but with diffuse visibility will trick your imagination by taking you to that vineyard without being there .
