The McKernon GroupThis barn addition was accomplished by dismantling an antique timber frame and resurrecting it alongside a beautiful 19th century farmhouse in Vermont.
What makes this property even more special, is that all native Vermont elements went into the build, from the original barn to locally harvested floors and cabinets, native river rock for the chimney and fireplace and local granite for the foundation. The stone walls on the grounds were all made from stones found on the property.
The addition is a multi-level design with 1821 sq foot of living space between the first floor and the loft. The open space solves the problems of small rooms in an old house.
The barn addition has ICFs (r23) and SIPs so the building is airtight and energy efficient.
It was very satisfying to take an old barn which was no longer being used and to recycle it to preserve it's history and give it a new life.

Moore Architects, PCWhile cleaning out the attic of this recently purchased Arlington farmhouse, an amazing view was discovered: the Washington Monument was visible on the horizon.
The architect and owner agreed that this was a serendipitous opportunity. A badly needed renovation and addition of this residence was organized around a grand gesture reinforcing this view shed. A glassy “look out room” caps a new tower element added to the left side of the house and reveals distant views east over the Rosslyn business district and beyond to the National Mall.
A two-story addition, containing a new kitchen and master suite, was placed in the rear yard, where a crumbling former porch and oddly shaped closet addition was removed. The new work defers to the original structure, stepping back to maintain a reading of the historic house. The dwelling was completely restored and repaired, maintaining existing room proportions as much as possible, while opening up views and adding larger windows. A small mudroom appendage engages the landscape and helps to create an outdoor room at the rear of the property. It also provides a secondary entrance to the house from the detached garage. Internally, there is a seamless transition between old and new.

Bushman Dreyfus ArchitectsThis Albemarle County home melds a sophisticated palette of color and design with the land around it, opening the interiors to the outdoors from every room. A quiet marriage of city polish and country charm, the design prioritizes natural light and expansive views while maintaining a sense of elegance and eclectic appeal.
Deep River PartnersViews from the charming street frontage ascend to the home positioned at the hilltop. A serpentine driveway transects low auto court walls, utilizing a European design technique to shield the home, creating a sense of security and transition from public to private. The auto court has an old-world European cobble road feel, comprised of clean-cut granite pavers. The “L” shape layout nestles the home within the landscape, defining outdoor rooms. Soft curves are introduced into the architectural details and landscaping to balance the straightness of the modern approach.
