 Goshen Residence, Goshen, CT
Start Date: 1995 Completion Date: 1996 Demetriades+Walker, Architect Ken Smith, Photography A twenty-acre weekend estate designed for New York City family. The property is characterized by a set of old field outdoor-rooms spatially defined by native woods and tree hedge rows and traditional stone walls. The project includes design for a 22x60 swimming pool, which is sited to emphasize the view toward the horizon. A series of gestural lines and spaces anchor the pool and provide a sense of scale relationship between the pool and the site context. Overall the designed landscape is intended to distill and draw on qualities of the native landscape and create a transcendental space of harmony with the nature of the place.
