The concrete foundations and finish surfaces are almost complete for our residential project in upstate New York, marking a significant step in the construction of the Dutchess County House and Artist Studio. The board-formed concrete retaining wall is not only a crucial design component, but is also an integral part of the structure, seamlessly uniting the outdoor and indoor living spaces as it stretches from the outside property through the heart of the home. Situated within a south-facing forested hill, the concrete retaining wall is one of many unique moments that blend landscape with human habitation in this place for living, working, and playing.
