Thomas Robinson of LEVER Architecture restored the exterior of the house in order to resurface the original wood facade, which had been covered up by vinyl siding at one point. They turned the unused attic into a “FifthSquare”: a box-like structure that acts as an office and mini-theater, complete with a ceiling-mounted projector and drop-down screen. The exterior of the extension is clad with charred cedar, which integrates smoothly into the asphalt shingle roof.

The interior is filled with a range of salvaged woods. Throughout the space, you’ll find floors made of white oak from Oregon, reclaimed red oak, and cork. The open kitchen features quartz counters, an induction cooktop, and salvaged wood accents.

The 1,800-square-foot home features a cantilevered design and diagonal cladding similar to that of Breuer’s own 1947 Connecticut residence. Hufft replaced the roof but maintained its flat profile—though finding the correct two-inch metal flashing was a challenge. “These are the details that make the original what I consider a masterpiece,” Hufft says.

The Edmund Light presents an elegant play of materials with industrial details. Although the light appears simple at first glance, the Edmund is comprised of several distinct components including a hand-turned maple shade, glass globe, brass fixings, and wrapped cloth cord. At once simple and artful, the pendant can be used in a variety of interiors, including kitchens, dining rooms, and dens.

The aluminum pipe light fixture and white oak dining room table—made from the original barn’s horse stalls—were both DIY projects completed by one of the homeowners and their friend, respectively. A design from The Rug Company, made from patches of old rugs, sits under the table.
