just released an article on the extraordinary art-project/ house in rural Connecticut designed by Daniel Libeskind — four exterior photos which are reproduced here.
Kent Greenhouse has played an important role in engineering and managing the steep drive that cut its way through rough ledge and thick woodland, and oversaw the complex installation of underground utilities. Darrell Cherniske worked closely with our mason to restore the farm walls as they might have been originally built. He chose seed mixes that would thrive over reclaimed ledge & woodland soils in order to create the large the forest-meadow grasses that allow the house to sit in a sea of native grasses that change colors throughout the day, and with the season, adding dramatically to the effect of light, reflection and color that are part of the architect’s and owners’ vision.
