House in a Meadow / Group Projects Architecture
The home is situated on a 30-acre wooded parcel in the town of North East, New York. The site's defining features are a ridge at the property's highest elevation and a large meadow 15' below. The meadow is ringed by trees and has long, westerly views out to the Catskill Mountains. The ridge to the east is dotted with wildflowers and rocky outcroppings. Access to the house is via a winding driveway that climbs the steep eastern edge of the site and terminates at the top of the ridge. In addition to the main home, the design brief also called for a guest house and pool.
