House by the Pond
Water Mill, NY, United States
The overall design of the house was a direct
response to an array of environmental regulations, site constraints, solar
orientation and specific programmatic requirements.
The strategy was to locate a two story volume
that contained all of the bedrooms and baths, running north/south, along the
western side of the site. An open, lofty, single story pavilion, separated by
an interstitial space comprised of two large glass pivot doors, was located
parallel to the street. This lower scale street front pavilion was conceived as
a breezeway. It connects the light and activity of the yard and pool area to
the south with the view and wildlife of the pond to the north.
The exterior materials consist of anodized
aluminum doors, windows and trim, cedar and cement board siding. They were
selected for their low maintenance, modest cost, long-term durability, and
sustainable nature. These materials were carefully detailed and installed to
support these parameters. Overhangs and sunshades limit the need for summer air
conditioning while allowing solar heat gain in the winter.
Specific zoning, an
efficient geothermal heating and cooling system, highly energy efficient
glazing and an advanced building insulation system resulted in a structure that
exceeded the requirements of the energy star rating system.
