Tenafly Residence

Tenafly Residence
NEW JERSEY

We were retained as Architect and Construction Manager to design a modern home on this property that rises to a knoll, where the house is situated, and continues a steep incline through the treed landscape.

Described in the Press as “Modern Art,” an interplay of metal, cedar, and glass is repeated in a composition of these materials on each facade.

The home is positioned to achieve privacy and maximize views, as shown from the rear deck.

An expansive sky-lit window wall brings the outdoors inside.

As the focal point of the entry, we custom-designed a dramatic cantilevered staircase, crafted in maple and mahogany.

Dynamic arches designed by our firm lead to a home office.

The interior living space features a maple and mahogany fireplace surround.

The contemporary home bar features back-lit, glazed upper cabinets with a curved element that reflects a design motif found in our custom woodwork throughout the home.

The bar table features brushed stainless steel curved end sections with a lacquered top.

A chiseled metal window punctuates the curved cedar façade and flows into a metal sheathed wall.

The axiometric drawing illustrates the curved cedar façade,  chiseled metal window, and metal sheathed wall that follow a path to the front doors.

The plot plan shows the house nestled into the hillside.
