For this Chappaqua, NY project the design pays homage to its natural surroundings. Set on a private lake with meandering rock walls and a warming hut dating back to the 1850’s.
This gut renovation consisted of a new floating staircase and kitchen which opened the floor plan allowing views to be seen at any vantage point. A completely new energy was conceived.
Refined materials and furnishings mix seamlessly with the new modern interior architecture and reclaimed rustic design elements.
