Architects Danilo and Lautaro Taranti, who are father and son, designed this 1,900-square-foot house in a densely forested quarter-acre lot in Costa Esmeralda, a resort area along the coast in southern Argentina. The main entrance to the house is hidden between two rectangular volumes that make up the structure.
Architect Rick Cook imagined his ideal family home and then found something surprisingly similar for sale on a wooded two-acre lot in Palisades, New York. Cost, indecision, and the scale of the project, which included the original 4,000-square-foot home and a sizable addition, all slowed the pace, but so did the couple’s desire to honor the intent of the original architect, Charles P. Winter, who designed the house in 1972. “It made me think about every move we made,” says Rick.
