The first is a private patio off the kitchen defined by a new fence and connected by clear opening doors. The second is a pergola is off the living room and sites in a garden space. Wisteria plantings will shade this structure in the future.

The Kitchen Lab is a flexible learning space to support the educational programs of the Stone Barns Center for Food and Agriculture.  Workshops by farmers and staff are done at four industrial tables that are moved around the space.  Programs for high school students, teacher training and a yearly staff dinner are run out of the Lab.  To integrate the material character of the historic barn, brick flooring was left exposed and prominent windows and views undisturbed.

The Nature Conservancy is seeking to renovate the lobby of its world headquarters in Ballston, Virginia in order to incorporate a new collection of photographs and interpretive materials. At the heart of this project is a refurbished lobby and new gallery that will enrich the visitor’s experience and allow the Conservancy to communicate its mission to the public. The project’s strategy is to build an interpretative experience around the nature flow of people entering the build.  Visitors and staff travel from the Metro, through the lobby and gallery and ultimately to a ͞prairie͟ garden at the second level.  Other improvements include new conference areas and café.

This 142 unit residential building was conceived as an age-in-place home for low income seniors.  The design of the project was as part of a development proposal by Affordable Housing Development, Inc for Low-Income Housing Tax Credit financing.  

The individual apartments are organized around a terraced courtyard, set in a sloped hill.  Each apartment, taken from a prototype developed by the client, enjoys inside and outside views and a covered balcony.  Residents access their apartments from a covered outdoor walkway.  A measure of identity is achieved by use of recessed entry doors and window planters.  An overall reduction in circulation space results in cost efficient construction and ultimately affordable housing. 

This project renovates and expands a six unit residential building in Alexandria, Virginia.  A new addition proposed at the back of the building extends into a sloped landscape, delineating public and private spaces.  At entry an existing site wall is wrapped up and over to make a new entrance.  

Parking area is kept to a minimum.
