Green House
This gut-renovation of a landmarked, Prospect Heights, Brooklyn, house is one of our most ambitious townhouse projects to date. It will feature a 2-story rear addition, with a sloping, rear glass wall. Above it there will be a large terrace off the Primary bedroom suite, and the steel and glass windows will continue up to the roof. We hope for approval of a green steel and glass wall to complement plants inside and out.
Expected completion, 2028
More Jewel Boxes
This is the second phase of a renovation of a landmarked, Park Slope, Brooklyn, house in which we renovated three bathrooms in 2022. We are now doing the kitchen, dining, mud room, family room, and kitchenette, tying together the overall concept with the first phase aesthetic.

Pool Barn
Bowerbird has begun work converting this mid-19th barn conversion into a pool house, connected by a bridge, to a pool that sits on a plinth. The pool is at the same elevation as the barn interior and is 4 feet above the surrounding field, obviating the need for a fence.
Expected completion, 2028
1748 Old Stone House
Our rear addition to this Old Stone House in Salisbury, Connecticut, attempts to to the counterpose, with a greater openness and blending into the surroundings, than the existing Stone House, competing as little as possible, from the street, by borrowing the materiality and proportions of the original.
Expected completion, 2028
Over The Valley
This house will be perched atop a mountain in Columbia County, with a view sweeping across the Hudson Valley, of the Catskill Mountains. The concept is to hide the view of the mountains as you approach the house. Then, walking along the inner, curved corridor, you believe the view is inwards, at the open court. Only after you've ascended the corridor does the view open up along the breezeway, and then more so, from the living room.
Expected completion, 2027
For The Record
This large townhouse in Carroll Gardens was practically caving in when we got to it. Nearly everything, including half the floor joists needed replacement. So we had a chance to totally re-imagine the house, with floating floor levels, double-height spaces, and a two-story, rear glass facade. We are trying to reuse as much of the old structure in new ways, and even what we could save of the old plank floors.
