Pictures and Videos of Home ReSource Fencade

We recently hired Steven Begleiter to photograph the Home ReSource Fencade in Missoula, MT, and he has done a write-up on his newsletter here. We hope to share some more of his wonderful images soon!

While we were there we stumbled across a number of fun videos produced by the HR team of the Fencade and it's construction process. Below is a link to part one. Parts 2-8 are also on Youtube in case you just can't get enough.

These are a few of our own photos of our project in Somerville. The exterior landscaping is still a work in progress, but the house itself is done. We hope to pursue publication of the project soon.

The Lauer House has been a fantastic project for us. The client came to us with a unique double lot in a dense urban location that was filled with a beautiful orchard of fruit trees, grape vines, and garden plots.  DHA’s first move was to demolish an expansive field of asphalt and chain link fence, along with the rear portion of the existing residence in order to create a link between the home and its landscape.

The entry sequence to the house is re-orchestrated to guide visitors up a stone walkway and under a cherry tree to the front door. The entry to the home is placed at the intersection of the public spaces in the new wing, and private spaces contained within the original gable-roofed house.  The contemporary  single story addition attached to the rear of the original house consists of the kitchen, dining area, living room, and patio. It reaches out into the orchard, placing an open platform at its eastern end, surrounded by fruit trees.
