2024 Residential Design Architecture Awards — Valley Estate by Anacapa Architecture Citation • Custom on the Boards Valley House’s linearity and vertical layering was inspired by several Richard Serra sculptures owned by the clients, who are big art collectors. “We wanted the walls to be rooted in the landscape and even be conveyed as somewhat of a ruin, as if it’s been there a long time,” says Tony Schonhardt, AIA, director of design.

2024 Residential Design Architecture Awards — Dunelands by dSPACE Studio Citation • Architectural Details One of the chief talents good architects have is the almost miraculous ability to conquer the “unbuildable sites.” This scenic property overlooking Lake Michigan had languished for some time, caught between its physical and code constraints and potential buyers’ programmatic needs. “It’s a protected national dune, and there was just one spot to put the house,” says Kevin Toukoumidis. “We were left with a very small footprint—on top of a flat dune where one side drops down 60 feet to the lake.” Keep Reading + See More Photos: https://bit.ly/3ZT7hr9 Residential Design magazine | Vol. 3, 2024 … Architect/Interior Design/Landscape Architect: Kevin Toukoumidis, AIA, principal in charge; Jordan Snittjer, project architect, dSPACE Studio, Chicago Builder: Matt Bruursema, Tony Zahn, Zahn Builders, Holland, Michigan Steel Fabricator: Bob Harmsen, Harmsen Steel, Zeeland, Michigan Photography: Ty Cole #residentialdesign #residentialarchitecture #customhomes #architects

2024 Residential Design Architecture Awards — Redivivus by Robert M. Cain, Architect Citation • Residential Special Constraints Robert M. Cain’s firm has a history of saving endangered buildings. And this is one of its most successful rescues so far. The small midcentury apartment building was on the brink of demolition when project architect Carmen Stan, AIA, ran across it while walking her dog. “It had been on the market for years, and under contract by a number of developers who could not satisfy the parking requirement,” says Bob. He was intrigued by the possibilities of the building, which dead ends in Piedmont Park, Atlanta’s stellar Olmstead-designed urban oasis, but the clock was ticking.

2024 Residential Design Architecture Awards — Pivoting by Mode4 Architecture Citation • Custom Outdoor Living Design “Pivoting refers to the doors on this addition and remodel, but it was also a response to the pandemic and how we use outdoor spaces,” explains architect Christopher Tucker, AIA. “We had to stop and pivot in a different direction on this project.

Louise, the original owner of this home, “was a philanthropist who entertained, and her husband was an ophthalmologist. It was a wacky house that was personal to this couple,” says VJAA partner Jennifer Yoos, FAIA, whose firm the new owners hired to renovate it over a 10-year period. Perched on a bluff and completed in 1969, the 5,900-square-foot house was designed in the Brutalist style, with strong massing and geometries, concrete retaining walls that wrap it, and a garage embedded in the hill.

2024 Residential Design Architecture Awards — The Roost by Furman + Keil Architects Citation • Custom Outdoor Living Design Our judges called The Roost “a beautiful pavilion.” Located at the bend of a tributary of Lake Austin, it replaces a moldering boathouse that contained an illegal apartment. The waterway, which is often stagnant, swells during periodic downpours and floods its banks, along with anything else nearby, until the Lake Austin dam is opened. Stormwater sweeps debris along its path, depositing a good deal of it right at this bend. The clients came to Furman + Keil for a replacement structure that would remediate the natural water flow issues and provide them with an elevated platform for lounging and birdwatching.
