“Given the site and the view, [the style] was an appropriate choice,†said David Businelli, AIA, Architect of Record from Salvadeo Associates Architect, P.C. “The owners wanted traditionalism blended with a more modern, casual floor plan than a fully traditional house would have.â€
To meet the desired aesthetic, a variety of granites was selected. “Masonry was a given from day one, both for the exterior and interior,†said Businelli. “Extensive glazing on the rear facade with generous terracing was provided.â€
According to the architect, the products from Ankur International were chosen over other sources due to the company's selection of stones, availability, service and price.
