Peterson Residence in Chevy Chase, Maryland by Robert M. GurneyThursday, September 1st, 2011Article source: Robert M. Gurney, FAIA, Architect Located in Chevy Chase, Maryland, this project involves a complete renovation and substantial addition to a familiar, simply massed brick “colonial”. The original, gable shaped volume fronting the street is minimally altered in an effort to retain the scale and massing of neighboring houses. Tall windows are incorporated into the existing façade. A copper clad, vaulted volume is integrated into the composition with a new front porch and wide stairs, invoking the nostalgic porches found throughout the neighborhood.

HUIS-JCMZ in Chevy Chase, MD by Studio Twenty Seven ArchitectureWednesday, May 25th, 2011Article source: Studio Twenty Seven Architecture Building on the foundations of a former brick Colonial residence demolished to realize this new pavilion, Studio27 worked collaboratively with owner Johannes Zutt to create a 2,500-square-foot house they envisioned as “a city in the garden.” Zutt, a peripatetic Dutch national, desired a modern domestic space with open plan living and minimalist detailing recalling the European architecture of Luigi Snozzi, Rem Koolhaas, and Pierre Chareau. Rooms are arranged within the house to form public and private spaces in the same manner that buildings are arranged in an urban setting to create streets, plazas, and alleys. The result is a contemporary dwelling designed using rigorous programming and critical logic to carefully evaluate the function and efficiency of every element within the home.  Garden
