Project Story
Situated on a dramatically sloped wooded lot overlooking Sagamore Lake in New York State, this home will provide the clients an opportunity to enjoy the natural setting and leave behind their Manhattan lifestyles.
Visitors will approach the structure and enter aligned with a massive field stone wall. All circulation paths intertwine with this wall, which on the first floor acts as a spatial foil to the grand views afforded across the living space and towards the lake. On the building’s east side, a Kal-wall system encloses both the first floor bathroom and the second floor hallway which is experientially connected via the stairwell. The stairwell landing juts away from the rest of the structure, momentarily placing the occupant within the landscape. This gesture emphasizes the relationship between the building, the site and the lake before visitors enter the private bedrooms upstairs.
