The home’s gravel driveway bends around the crest of a grassy hill, seemingly headed deeper into the field. Invisible from the road, the Clinton Corners Residence emerges from the meadow upon approach, tucked into the hill. Though at first appearing as a single-level home, a concrete retaining wall, struck perpendicular to the slope, creates two “at grade” levels, integrating the architecture with the rolling topography. The thoughtful simplicity, warm palette, and graceful integration with the site ensure that the home will be a comfortable, lasting place for the clients’ growing family.
