Saltmans
Craryville, NY
The Saltmans purchased a small plot of land in the mid 1960s with a series of buildings dotting the landscape. The relationship between owner and client spans nearly three generations, allowing for a construction method based on loyalty and trust.
Soft-Firm designed an addition to the central residence, adapting the vernacular A-frame into a new primitive. The cathedral-like roofline is calibrated with program to give a feeling of expansiveness to the sleeping areas on the second floor. A double height space allows for a writing nook and play room to overlook the entrance foyer.
