FAMILY RETREAT
Architect Name: Donald Giambastiani
Architecture Firm: Soloman + Bauer + Giambastiani Architects, Inc.
Local natural stone, cedar shingles and standing seam metal roofs integrate the complex building masses and lend a “village” feel to the new compound. The building elements are meant to resemble a typical evolving New England farmhouse expansion. Extensive site grading, retaining walls, septic and landscaping work were executed to mitigate impact to the existing site amenities and the new house’s orientation and fenestration combine to highlight the views and bring the outside in.
