Explore This Amazing WorkSleeve House Single Family Residence
This truly unique home was designed by noted architect and scholar Adam Dayem and recently won second place in the American-Architects U.S. Building of the Year competition. The 3-BR/2.5-bath home is sited on open, rolling meadows, in a setting that affords privacy, as well as dramatic valley and mountain views. As enigmatic as it is practical, the structure has been conceived diagrammatically as two intersecting sleeve-like volumes. The sustainably sourced charred wood facade gives the house a rough, weathered texture, a contemporary reinterpretation of old barns in the Hudson Valley.
