Woodcliff Lake Residence II
Several phases of renovations by Morpurgo Architects transformed this once concrete block ranch, coated in pool-paint blue, from a traditional rectangular box to a soaring, contemporary redwood home.
We created new facades with light filled rooms and flowing outdoor spaces. The curve of the deck is defined by the nearby dogwoods and lilacs that were undisturbed during the building process and, along with other plantings, connect the family with the outdoors.
The existing garage roof became the foundation for a two-story living space with a loft that reaches into the treetops. The renovations transformed the building into a cohesive and dramatic whole.
