"While inside the house, one is either within the cube, or living
between it and the visually porous exterior envelope of the
building, creating direct connections to nature and amplifying
the sense of the cube as a volume within a volume — or a home
within a house," describes Barrett.
The wide-plank Dinesen flooring and plastered walls and ceil-
ings provide tactile effects throughout that are complemented
by textiles. Furniture by names such as Fritz Hansen, Ronan
and Erwan Bouroullec, and Patricia Urquiola — to name only
a few — combine with artworks from the couple's collection
(including pieces by Sol LeWitt, Julian Opie and Seton Smith)
that bring touches of color to the different spaces where visual
balance prevails.
According to Barrett, this home was shaped to enable the
owners to look toward the future "expansively, intentionally
and with curiosity."
