The original house is a system of prefabricated barn structures designed by artist / architect Adam Kalkin. To minimize the impact on the original design, the addition connects to the surface of the existing keeping the playful and intricate relationship of the overlapping structural systems and circulation. Occupants are required to enter the new spaces through original sequences and at the moment of contact between old and new, the skin is pealed back and circulation allowed to flow around the structure. There were significant Planning and Zoning requirements for this project. Project Manager / Architect @ Maryann Thompson Architects Photography: Chuck Choi, Stephan Lee
