Let’s design a little place.

Our design and development approach was crafted with context in mind. How do we make new builds feel like they belong - nestled homes that feel like they’re of the landscape and not just in it or near it.

[Standard Detail] [Small L] Context

Context

The window patterns on our Small Bar are designed to strike a beautiful composition from every angle - front, side and back. When developing a rural home, the importance of 2D curb appeal gives way to the 360 experience of the landscape. Our Small Bar? It’s a beautiful home from every angle.

[Standard Detail] [Small L] Composition

Composition

Nobody builds a house in the country to stay inside all the time. Considered outdoor areas expand your usable footprint, without having to pay for walls, roofs, or ongoing conditioning costs. The HUTS Small Bar merges indoors and outdoors, adding lots of usable (outdoor) space at a fraction of the build cost.

Small L

The Small L design is big on flexibility, design and functionality. With a dedicated office space, laundry, mechancial storage, and entry mud room, the Small L is design for weekends away, full-time-living or high-value renting. The two wings of the home wrap around a central courtyard that can be a controlled garden landscape within a more wild parcel.

Up near Livingston Manor in the western Catskills, you'll find Tanzman Lake. We helped our clients imagine how to turn develop their raw 7-acre parcel - thick with tree cover and marked by topographic shifts - into a world-class music recording destination.

Positioned in an open meadow behind our client's existing farm house, this new primary home, garage and art studio combines modern building science based on Passive Principles with nods to traditional forms of the regions. A south-facing, wraparound porch surrounds the T-shaped home, reducing solar gain during the day and bringing the family closer to the beautiful land that surround them.
