Design Dialogue
Our latest project in Greenwich, inspired by Mies van der Rohe’s work at IIT in the 1940s, is illustrated in the July 2010 issue of Architectural Digest. The existing house, which dates back to 1901, is a marvelously bold composition of columns, entablatures, curved porches with balustrades, and widow’s walks. Our original task was to renovate and restore the house and to design an addition with large areas of glass that would nevertheless adhere to the same language of form. From this starting point, the addition evolved through several stages to its final form that is airy, relaxed and flooded with light.
