Compound interest: a skillful blend of old and new updates a house in rural New Jersey
Article Abstract:
Claire and George David Weiss engaged architect Steve Harris to remodel their Oldwick, NJ weekend house into a year-round residence. Because of the 18th century design that made the original structure too close to the road and forced an entry from the driveway, Harris added another house that allowed a front door entry away from the road. He designed, also, a pool, pool house, music studio, and garage. With landscaper Margie Ruddick, he created a casual layout within a careful arrangement of all of the buildings that takes visitors deeper into the property.
