Bay Rd., Architect Kate Johns
 |
|
The
theme of this home is from an 1892 South Hampton Shingle
Style by the great architect of the late 1800's, Stanford
White. White designed it for his friend the American impressionist
William Merritt Chase. The house appears in many of his
paintings such as "The Bayberry Bush".

 |
The ideal
architect for this modern composition on a 110 year old theme
is Kate Johns, a preservationist with many noteworthy successes
at bringing yesterday's character to today's homes.
The main
section above is quite true to the original and the Carriage
House makes an exemplary compliment to it. Much changed in back
is the distinctive belvedere and bright window walls.

A
winter tree room joins house to Carriage House.
The
Au Pair quarters over the Carriage house look
out on entry lawns and the valley beyond.
The
artist's studio area became the living room.
