The Cumberland Townhouse is a private home recently completed by NY-based Elizabeth Roberts Architecture - Design.

坎伯兰乡屋是最近由纽约伊丽莎白罗伯茨建筑公司建成的私人住宅。

The architect’s description: The Cumberland Townhouse is located on a park block in the neighborhood of Fort Greene in Brooklyn, NY. The house was in a dilapidated state when the owner’s purchased the building; the rear wall was falling down and water had been entering the building for several years.

建筑师的描述：坎伯兰镇的房子位于纽约布鲁克林格林堡附近的一个公园街区。房主买下这座大楼时，房子已经破败不堪；后墙倒塌了，水已经进入建筑物好几年了。

The house was completely transformed with a new rear wall and a two-story addition at the rear of the house. The addition is open to the living room above and is connected through interior steel and glass windows that mimic the two-story, exterior windows. The doors at the garden open completely to create a seamless connection between the kitchen / dining level and the garden. Vines are planted in recessed planters along the 2 story party walls in the dining room–the room was designed with the idea of being an indoor-outdoor space where the garden melds with the interior spaces. The vines will cover the double-story party walls and will add an organic quality to all of the spaces that the dining room connects. The top of the addition is a private master bedroom balcony.
