Modern Beach House

In Connecticut, there are usually two extremes. Either you have a traditional New England home, or you have a modern/contemporary home. Johnathan Wagner has managed to combine the two,"blurring the traditional/contemporary frontier". Johnathan Wagner is based out of Weston, Connecticut and specializes in custom homes in the Fairfield County area. He has work has been described as "pushing the limits of the vernacular" by various press and has been the recipient of multiple awards for design. He describes himself as designing, "imaginative high end residential and commercial". This beach house he has designed in Westport, Connecticut would fall under that description. The house is a 3500 sqft home made from reclaimed, recycled, and sustainable materials along with the use of new geotechnical systems. While i could not acquire a floor plan, the exterior facade and use of materials is what intrigued me the most about this project. I had the opportunity to look through the architects other projects and found that he blends flawlessly the contemporary traditional styles of architecture, just as the critics had said. While i cannot comment on the interiors or the use of space inside the homes i wanted to put it up so others would have the opportunity to have a quick glance his projects or possibly do deeper research on his site. I would highly recommend looking through his other projects. http://www.jwaia.com
