Project Description

MYERS HOUSE

Located on a wooded hillside overlooking the Middle Patuxent River, the house engages its surroundings by careful placement to connect interior spaces with the landscape. The challenge was to design a house that serves the multiple purposes of day to day living, entertaining, and multiple family generations.


The result is a plan organized around a central open kitchen-family room space and is flanked by two wings that delineate the family and formal areas. Upstairs, a central master suite is divided from wings for children and guests by stairs and elevator which allow independent access.


A walk out basement contains entertainment and exercise spaces and connects to the pools. The house employs several energy efficient systems including geothermal heating and cooling, high-performance insulation, as well as energy star windows and appliances.
