RESIDENCE: Design & Construction
325 Canaan Road is the product of collaborative efforts in both the exterior/interior design and the construction phases of the project. Steven Learner Studio, a NY based architecture and interior design firm, whose work has appeared in Vogue, Elle, and Town & Country, along with Jim Muncey of Structure Works High-End Construction Services worked together to transform the property. They created a home that surpasses the traditional boundaries of residence, creating a seamless relationship between architecture, art and living. To accommodate a large, young family, the entire house was utilized, incorporating both the attic space and basement level to provide a media room, billiards room, playroom, steam room and gym. Furnishings were selected and designed to balance the couple's desires for beauty and durability.
