Bennett Hill Residence
Barnard, VT
The design of this hilltop residence emphasizes a seamless connection between house and landscape. Extended panoramic views of the Green Mountains and shorter-range views of Barnard Village and Silver Lake are offered from both the interior spaces and two large exterior stone terraces and their connecting pathways.
Fine crafted stone walls and mass plantings of ornamental grasses and native perennials give structure to the outdoor rooms around the house, the rich texture and color providing an intimate human scale against the vast, subtle-hued backdrop.
