Timbertop House is a house in Canada by Akb Architects, conceived as a contemporary weekend retreat for an active family of five. Designed in 2024, the project draws on the language of local farm buildings while adjusting its gabled form to the site’s uneven terrain and long views across the Niagara Escarpment. Inside, a single-story plan and durable materials support daily use in every season.
One hundred miles north of Midtown Manhattan, Ridge House is nestled in a wooded upland area of lower Columbia County, New York. Designed in 2025 by Brooklyn-based architecture studio Worrell Yeung, the 128-foot-long gabled structure resembles a concrete enclave for a young family of four. The home consolidates a main house, an outbuilding, and a pool into a pathless layout, taking full advantage of views to the Catskill Mountains and the Taconic Range.
