Lang Architecture’s<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>Selected Projects<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n

Hudson Woods – Kerhonkson, New York<\/h4>\n

Hudson Woods is a community of 26 homes spread across 131 forested acres in the Catskills of upstate New York. The homes and additional structures blend seamlessly with the natural surroundings, with each lot featuring built elements tailored to specific site conditions. The buildings appear modest from the outside but reveal spacious interiors upon entry.<\/p>\n

Large windows and walls of glass connect the indoor spaces with the stunning outdoor scenery of mountains and forests. The buildings are constructed from natural materials, including locally sourced woods and stone, and are crafted by local labor. Roads and driveways are made from crushed bluestone mined on the property, and forests are cleared selectively to minimize impact. The design prioritizes preserving the landscape over the ease of construction, ensuring a primary experience of nature.<\/p>\n

Kenoza Lake House – Kenoza Lake, New York<\/h4>\n

The Kenoza Lake House is a single-story, three-bedroom stone residence nestled in a mature woodland with expansive lake views. Visitors approaching from the road wind their way downhill through 15 forested acres, glimpsing the lake through the trees.<\/p>\n

The house is divided into three sections: a central living area, the primary suite, and a guest wing on either side. The sunken living room in the central area creates an intimate feel in a spacious, window-filled room that connects to nature. A 40-foot array of accordion doors lines one side of the living space, offering a seamless blend with the outdoors.<\/p>\n

The shed roofs are angled to match the natural terrain, and the house is clad in local fieldstone, anchoring it to its site. The copper roofs will age and blend with the surrounding vegetation over time.<\/p>\n

Black Houses at Hudson Woods – Kerhonkson, New York<\/h4>\n

The black houses at Hudson Woods feature greenhouses, screen porches with outdoor kitchens, pool houses, pools, studios, garages, and more. All of these elements are seamlessly integrated into the natural landscape, carefully designed to respond to specific site conditions.<\/p>\n

Natural materials like local woods and stone are used, and the structures are hand-crafted by local labor. The design prioritizes preserving the landscape over the ease of construction, ensuring a primary experience of nature is maintained.<\/p>\n
