Heath Country Home

Addition and renovation of a vacation home in the hills of Heath, Massachusetts. The first floor of the home was extensively renovated including a new kitchen, bathroom and laundry room. Additions include a breakfast nook, window bay, entry foyer, a two story screen porch and most importantly, a 75 foot-long indoor lap pool.
The pool design is based on the upright wings of the airplane, as the owner is an avid aviator as well as a tri-athlete. Large expanses of glass allow natural light to stream into the year-round training space. Cedar siding and extensive stone work ground the modern form of the building in the natural landscape.
