Connecticut Barn
Becomes a Classic |
|
The house has a footprint of a scant 871 feet, so it was critical to use height and light to make the spaces feel bigger.
To do this, Barbara varied the ceiling heights, placed the windows with care, and used glass creatively inside the house to visually extend the space. For example, glass encloses the stairs and balconies, making them all but disappear. Even more surprising is the glass floor of the small third-story loft, which allows light from the skylights to fill the house.
