This corner house on Harrison Street in Princeton, New Jersey, seemed to sprout a green shell overnight. Residents David and Rachel Mostafavi didn’t mind that their unconventional suburban renovation took neighbors by surprise. The new exterior suits the couple and their children, Violet and Ellis, just fine.

A few feet from the beach, Luc Carpentier turned a hidden bungalow into his new home. “I asked Alexander to do the renovation because I admire the way he interprets Manrique’s style,” he says.

Patrick Gwynne was only 24 when he designed The Homewood to replace the Victorian property his family already occupied on the site. The luxurious principal rooms are set on the first floor to enjoy views over the luscious 10 acre (4ha) garden, itself largely the work of Gwynne and his father. The bedrooms are arranged in a separate wing raised on pilotis to form a porte-cochère, and joined to the main block by a glazed link enclosing a ceremonial spiral staircase. The numerous built-in fittings and most of the furniture were also designed by the architect. After the Second World War Gwynne returned to The Homewood where he based his practice and remained, subtly adapting and refining it, for the rest of his 90-year life. Now cared for by the National Trust, The Homewood presents the most complete record of its period of a modern architect's personal domestic vision to be found anywhere in England.
