Designed by Thread Collective, this stunning modern glass and cedar house is situated in Scarsdale, a picturesque town in Westchester County, New York. Spanning an impressive 5,000 square feet, the living areas of this dwelling cleverly occupy the negative spaces formed by a composition of rectilinear forms.

With a focus on enhancing daylighting and capturing breathtaking views, both the interior and exterior spaces offer a seamless connection to a tranquil pond that stretches along the rear of the property.

The clever use of negative spaces within the rectilinear forms allows the living areas to flow harmoniously, maximizing the functional space within this expansive dwelling.
