WU, AIA, NCARB Michael S. Wu Architect 732-291-9158 MichaelSWuArchitect.com T he initial challenge facing Michael S. Wu when he was tasked with designing a home for this Monmouth County property was the terrain. “The site is long and rectangular and was steeply sloped from side to side,” says Wu, a member of the American Institute of Architects and principal of Locust-based Michael S. Wu Architect. Wu had the property regraded to accommodate the home that his clients — interior designer Jessica Fischer, owner of JFD Creative, and her husband, Ray — wanted. “A lot of fill was required,” he says, “as were several retaining walls. We used a ‘cut-and-fill’ technique, moving the earth from the higher part of the site and redistributing it to the lower parts to make a level base for the house along with several retaining walls.” The refashioned topography provides solid footing for the new threewing, 9,000-square-foot home. designnewjersey.com 31
