The client’s request was quite common - a typical 2800 sf builder home with 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, living space, and den. However, their desire was for this to be “anything but common.” The result is an innovative update on the production home for the modern era, and serves as a direct counterpoint to the neighborhood and its more conventional suburban housing stock, which focus views to the backyard and seeks to nullify the unique qualities and challenges of topography and the natural environment. The Terraced House cautiously steps down the site’s steep topography, resulting in a more nuanced approach to site development than cutting and filling that is so common in the builder homes of the area. The compact house opens up in very focused views that capture the natural wooded setting, while masking the sounds and views of the directly adjacent roadway. The main living spaces face this major roadway, effectively flipping the typical orientation of a suburban home, and the main entrance pulls visitors up to the second floor and halfway through the site, providing a sense of procession and privacy absent in the typical suburban home. Clad in a custom rain screen that reflects the wood of the surrounding landscape - while providing a glimpse into the interior tones that are used. The stepping “wood boxes” rest on a series of concrete walls that organize the site, retain the earth, and - in conjunction with the wood veneer panels - provide a subtle organic texture to the composition. The interior spaces wrap around an interior knuckle that houses public zones and vertical circulation - allowing more private spaces to exist at the edges of the building. The windows get larger and more frequent as they ascend the building, culminating in the upstairs bedrooms that occupy the site like a tree house - giving views in all directions. The Terraced House imports urban qualities to the suburban neighborhood and seeks to elevate the typical approach to production home construction, while being more in tune with modern family living patterns.

For this home, we really wanted to create an atmosphere of cozy. A "lived in" farmhouse. We kept the colors light throughout the home, and added contrast with black interior windows, and just a touch of colors on the wall. To help create that cozy and comfortable vibe, we added in brass accents throughout the home. You will find brass lighting and hardware throughout the home. We also decided to white wash the large two story fireplace that resides in the great room. The white wash really helped us to get that "vintage" look, along with the over grout we had applied to it. We kept most of the metals warm, using a lot of brass and polished nickel. One of our favorite features is the vintage style shiplap we added to most of the ceiling on the main floor...and of course no vintage inspired home would be complete without true vintage rustic beams, which we placed in the great room, fireplace mantel and the master bedroom.

Modern farmhouse describes this open concept, light and airy ranch home with modern and rustic touches. Precisely positioned on a large lot the owners enjoy gorgeous sunrises from the back left corner of the property with no direct sunlight entering the 14’x7’ window in the front of the home. After living in a dark home for many years, large windows were definitely on their wish list. Three generous sliding glass doors encompass the kitchen, living and great room overlooking the adjacent horse farm and backyard pond. A rustic hickory mantle from an old Ohio barn graces the fireplace with grey stone and a limestone hearth. Rustic brick with scraped mortar adds an unpolished feel to a beautiful built-in buffet.

Wer sagt denn, dass sich Widersprüche ausschließen? Urban und ländlich. Streng und leicht. Für HGK sind das nicht unauflösliche Widersprüche, sondern eine zu bewältigende Herausforderung. Denn wer das richtige Grundstück und die richtige Architektur angeboten bekommt, kann beides zugleich haben. Dieses Haus ist ein Paradebeispiel dafür. Werden wir konkret: Dem Bauherren war einerseits die Nähe zum Flughafen und ein urbanes Umfeld wichtig. Andererseits kam es ihm auf ein Wohnen an, das sich ins ländliche Grüne öffnet. Außerdem wichtig: Das Haus sollte im gewohnten Umfeld gebaut werden, damit die drei Kinder weiter zu Ihrer Schule gehen können. HGK suchte und fand es: das passende Grundstück für diese Vorgaben und auch die Architektur, die HGK zusammen mit dem Bauherrn und dem Architekten entwarf. Sie ist von klarer Strenge, und steht mit ihren Anklängen an die Backsteinmoderne für eine klassische urbane Orientierung. Jedoch löst sich die Strenge im Innenraum zugunsten von großzügigen, transparenten, sehr lichten Räumen völlig auf – und transportieren das grüne Umfeld quasi ins Haus.
