Red House
Sitting on the edge of a large hay meadow, the low earth sheltered north elevation gives little indication of the volume within the house. (see “Red House Interior”). The low arching profile emerging from and connected to the landscape was inspired by an interest in iron age constructed earthen mounds in England and Wales. Galvanized steel siding reflects the setting sun and the agricultural buildings in the surrounding area.
In 2006, The Red House won an annual AIA Vermont Award for Excellence in Architecture. This award was special because it was awarded for outstanding design in any building in Vermont 25 years old or older. |
