Designed for a growing family, a simple and familiar form responds to the character of the neighborhood while high performance windows and wood detailing maximize outward views, improve energy performance, and bring in plenty of natural light.

Brick and steel are used judiciously at a recessed cove to offer protection from the elements and offer a welcoming entry. On the interior, an expansive brick wall is exposed creating with texture and warmth a sense of coziness and familiarity.
