Overview

The beautifully scaled and detailed addition is designed to integrate into a seamless whole. The addition to these 19th century farm buildings connects the natural and the manmade and is a model of sustainable design for the nonprofit organizations that apply for Kresge challenge grants. The jury said "traditional modernism intersects and coalesces with a farm house and its natural landscape. It is on such an intimate scale – so controlled, so beautiful, like interlocking panels."
