Vermont Lodge
Part
of a comprehensive estate building and site development
program for a past client, MMA Inc., was commissioned to
renovate a ten-year old contemporary post-and-beam home
for seasonal use.
MMA's design team, led by firm associate Anthony Frausto, AIA,
brought character and charm to the exterior while addressing
several programmatic and technical issues plaguing the
original home.
Principal
John MacDonald, AIA, counseled the client to understand
that the house had "good bones" and
could be expanded upon and made over rather than torn down,
making more sensible use of our client's budget. A
new porte cochere, garage wing, and new fireplace stonework
addressed all the client's primary technical requirements.
Making
use of existing gables, MMA brought together exposed douglas-fir
timbers, plaster, solid carved support brackets,
shingles and cedar siding. The combination formed a unique
architectural ensemble that recalls the heritage of
both American and European vacation lodges.
