The Denison House
17 of 20
The annex has always been connected to the stone house. ADHOC Architectes reworked the space connecting the two volumes, maintaining the existing openings in the three-foot-wide walls of the Denison House in their entirety.On the ground floor, this connecting space has been redesigned as an entrance vestibule, separating the existing spaces of the house and the new contemporary spaces created in the annex. The architects considered the interplay of heights and chose materials to create a harmonious transition. For example, the slate floor in the entrance vestibule is a historic nod to the old local quarries of Shipton Township and to the house's exterior cladding.
