Stone Clad French Provincial Style Addition | Daniel Koplowitz, Architect
Pound Ridge / United States / 2004
3
Major addition to a 1940's French Provincial Revival home. The house was found to be constructed of painted cinder block. The addition which included a basement / pool level gym and sauna also extended the house by an additional 20 feet. The original plan was to clad the house with purchased stone veneer but to the delight of the owner, excavation for the new basement level found solid granite schist. The stone was harvested and used to clad the entire house - on-site - by skilled masons.
