Composed of three gable structures clad in hand-molded, Danish clay tiles with Corten metal features, TeglHus is inspired by the adjacent neighboring building, an 1816 Federal-style, red brick home. The home reflects the tonality, stateliness, and permanence of the historic structure.
The C-shaped plan of the combined house and guest house forms an exterior courtyard of outdoor programming, including outdoor eating and two covered seating areas within the Corten lath gable overhangs of the two buildings. The lath reveals the backside of the brick tile detail, giving a glimpse of the brick tile attachment.
The first-floor plan consists of the dining room, kitchen, pantry, sitting room, powder room, entry foyer, mudroom, and garage. The second-floor spaces include the primary bedroom suite, sitting room with an adjacent porch space, two ensuite bedrooms, a laundry room, and linen storage space. An elevator provides accessibility to each floor including the basement storage and mechanical spaces.
The interiors are organized and anchored by a custom oak staircase, a central, two-sided fireplace of Danish, hand-molded brick, and custom-designed cabinetry throughout.
