项目坐落于距纽约市仅两个小时车程的Ancram县，前身是一座19世纪的谷仓，由建筑与室内设计事务所BarlisWedlick设计改造。改造后的建筑通体漆黑，并配有醒目的红框窗户。
In Ancram, NY, two hours north of New York City, architecture and interior design firm BarlisWedlick salvaged and relocated a 19th century barn from a nearby town and transformed it by painting it black with bold, red-framed windows for its new owner.

谷仓的改造设计秉承了被动式节能技术的原则，改造后的谷仓变身成一栋Loft式单体住宅，该住宅配备有一部通向单间公寓的消防梯、燃木炉，以及一个特斯拉充电桩。谷仓屋顶上的集成太阳能电池板是项目的亮点之一，这些太阳能电池板能够为整个场地上的多栋建筑供电。除此之外，项目中最引人注目的就是谷仓前的室外游泳池，这是纽约州首个天然泳池，其中的池水是利用室外水景花园的过滤得到的。

The barn, built with Passive House principles, includes a loft with a fireman’s pole that leads to a studio apartment, a wood burning stove, and a Tesla charging station. A highlight of the barn is a photovoltaic array built into the roof that provides power to multiple buildings on the property. Perhaps the most notable feature, however, is that the property is home to the first natural swimming pool in New York state, which uses water gardens to perform all necessary filtration requirements.

新建住宅
House
除了改造谷仓外，业主还委托BarlisWedlick事务所在场地的小山丘上设计一栋度假屋风格的住宅。新建住宅的灵感主要来自于谷仓。总项目场地占地75英亩（约303514平方米），新建的被动式住宅面积为1800平方英尺（约167平方米），房屋结构由烧杉板(Shou-Sugi-Ban焼き杉)覆盖。烧杉，日本传统木材防腐工艺，最初是一种保存雪松的方式，通过烈火燃烧与特殊处理，使木材更加经久耐用。此外，建筑师还为住宅设计了一个类似“谷仓”的框架结构，在风格上，将新建住宅与改造谷仓联系在一起。
The owner also commissioned BarlisWedlick to design a cabin-style home just up the hill on the property. The inspiration for the new construction home drew heavily from the barn. The 1,800 sq ft Passive House certified main house on the home’s 75-acre property of which the structure is clad in ‘Shou-sugi-ban’ charred cedar – the traditional Japanese art of charring cedar, originally a way of preserving the cedarwood to make it more durable. The firm used the structural typology of a “barn frame” to tie both buildings together.

新建住宅中还包括一个绿色屋顶的车库以及一套能源监系统，借助这套系统BarlisWedlick事务所便可以持续跟踪与掌控住宅的耗能情况，得到的数据与分析结果将有助于进一步更新并应用在其他被动式住宅项目中。住宅内部，起居区和卧室区采取了开放平面的形式，抬高的地面与精致的复古家具将这两个区域区分开来，形成公共空间与私密空间的柔性边界。
The home has a green-roofed garage and an energy monitoring system that allows BarlisWedlick to continuously track and compile an ever-growing post-occupancy energy analysis that has been used to refine work on newer Passive House projects. Inside, the house has an open living and bedroom area that can be divided by a wall that rises from within the master suite platforms, plus vintage and built-in furniture.

桑拿塔
Sauna Tower
此外，在项目场地上，BarlisWedlick事务所还建造了一座面积为787平方英尺（约73平方亩）的3层木塔。塔的首层为一间供业主使用的桑拿房。塔身由阿拉斯加黄色雪松木框架制成，上部则采用了与新建住宅一致的金属屋面。在选材上，轻盈的塔身木结构坐落在坚固的混凝土底座上，与新建住宅相互呼应；在风格上，粗旷朴实的外观则与住宅形成鲜明的对比。木塔通过一条狭窄的栈桥与主建筑相连，二层设有桌椅为公共休闲区，顶层设有秋千为娱乐室。
Also on the grounds, BarlisWedlick built a 3-story 787 sq.ft. tower with a first-level sauna for the owner. Made with an Alaskan yellow cedar timber frame topped by a metal roof to match the house. The materiality of the Sauna Tower mimics the fundamental materiality of the cabin; a strong foundation with a delicate timber frame structure atop, but as a counterpoint to the carefully controlled envelope of the cabin-style home.It is connected to the main house by a narrow bridge. It has a second level with seating and a table, while the top-level has a swing.
