It has a board-and-batten exterior and features a second-floor “hayloft”<br />

that contains an office for the homeowner. The cupola on the garage roof<br />

simulates a roof vent.<br />

DNJ: What was the inspiration for the wing at the rear of the home?<br />

MSW: The third building is imagined as a simple “shed” in a field. It’s<br />

detailed in all glass and has a metal roof. It contains the kitchen and<br />

family room functions. Inside, the cathedral ceiling is covered in wood<br />

DNJ: How do the three buildings work together?<br />

MSW: All three buildings are joined together by an enclosed pergola.<br />

So we have the traditional house, which is very Colonial in form; we<br />

elements, you must travel through the pergola.<br />
