Bog – New Residence - Sharon, CT – 2004-2006 – 2,000 SF house and 1,000 SF garage
LGA Team: Lynn Gaffney, Jarrett Boor, Michael Lehner, Grady Gillies, Dana Maringo.
Clients: Lynn Gaffney and Bill Backus; Contractor: Revival Homes

After being frustrated by the NYC co-op market, an architect and her husband opt to remain urban renters and build a weekend house in Litchfield County, CT. The concept is economy and sustainability for this 2,000 SF home on an 8.5 acre wooded site adjacent to wetlands. The house is tightly planned within its prefab building composition of structurally insulated panels.

The street facade folds down from the roof and refers to neighboring clapboard houses in proportion and privacy as well as the agricultural shed. This standing seam metal clad form wraps the prefab panels or fins that divide, join, and organize the domestic activities of the home.
