The secret of
the Lake House is in the use of volumes to define
living spaces from within and without. Simple, clean
contemporary lines bring together traditional building
materials for a house that is perfectly suited to its site and
the owners' needs for a summer home that expresses itself as a
pure work of art. The house was built on the foundation
of a pre-existing building at an idyllic site facing a quiet
cove on Lake Champlain.
