Floating Stairs

Located in Pennsylvania horse country on the slope of a family farm, the Nagy residence is a modern farmhouse designed for a modern family. Like historic farmhouses, the Nagy home has an orientation and floorplan that optimizes passive heating and cooling. But unlike farmhouses which did not have the benefit of high-performance glass and insulation, the Nagy home is flooded with daylight in each room. Warm, natural materials reflect the surrounding site while clean detailing gives them a more modern aesthetic. Photos by: Don Pearse Photographers, Inc.
