description: Briggsdale was inspired by its rural context and designed to honor the agricultural history of the area. It was constructed on the site of the former Briggs Farm, behind the original farmhouse. |
|
description: We used simple massing to create a barn-like feel. Windows and doors were carefully grouped and placed to give scale to the building. |
|
description: We used a limited palette of materials and colors to complement the architecture. The stone base is a common theme in rural Ohio and serves to anchor the building to the site. |
|
description: The metal siding and trim was selected to resemble the board and batten siding of older agricultural out-buildings. |
|
description: The size of the project is broken down into three separate elements ñ two housing wings and a one-story connector to resemble a farm complex. A curved stone wall represents the remnants of an attached silo and creates private courtyard space. |
|
description: The red metal roof and cupolas create a strong identity and unify the buildings. |
