Additions / Renovations
This project consisted of a total renovation of a 6,400 sf two story 1940 colonial home with a Kitchen, Family Room, Mudroom and three-car Garage Addition. The design and detailing of the home is traditional in style with built-in cabinetry, engaged pilasters, antique oak floors and sitting porch. We were also commissioned to design a new Pool House and Guest House which were completed after the work on the Main House was finished.

The project consisted of a complete renovation of a 1940 home in Darien and the addition of a two car Garage, Kitchen and Family Room wing. The 8,300 sqft colonial home, in plan, takes the shape of an elle, and reveals a formal facade from the street. However, moving around to the rear of the home, the scale begins to break down, resembling a farmhouse from the period, with a low- pitched, covered porch, and modestly detailed columns.

This project consisted of a substantial addition and renovation of an earlier small 1,400 sf waterfront cottage we had designed 15 years ago for the same client.
We added two wings to the front of the cottage one containing a guest suite the other an office and exercise room for the client’s spouse.
On the cove side we added two angled wings that capture the expansive water views, one containing a kitchen and breakfast area, the other the primary suite with a sitting room.
A continuous loggia ties both wings together and a sweeping arched terrace fills the intervening space.
What was previously a one bedroom weekend cottage is now a three bedroom home!
