Very thrilling progress seen today at our project on Long Island with @jaynedesignstudio. The column screen has been installed under the new oculus and has received a fresh coat of a deep green paint. #peterpennoyerarchitects #ad100 #oculus #stairs #columns

Our firm is so proud of our new book, Peter Pennoyer Architects: City | Country published by @vendomepress, which illustrates 19 projects from the last decade spanning new construction, conservation, and renovations all over the country and varying greatly in scope, style, building conditions, and materials. This book reflects our rich and invigorating relationships with our clients, colleagues, the builders, craftspeople, designers, engineers, and vendors we work alongside to tackle complex situations and create lasting beauty. As always it was so much fun to work with @ericpiasecki @annematviak @jackiedecter @markmagowan @celiafuller to produce this book which we can’t wait to share more of with you. For a signed copy, check the link in our bio! Interior design shown in cover photo by @tavernoftheheart #newbook #cominginoctober #peterpennoyerarchitects

Robust rooflines, vigorous masonry and metalwork….Upper West Side architecture is a feast for the eyes, and worth straining your neck to walk blocks upon blocks scanning the tops of buildings to notice the extent of the lively and dimensional details.

Shadows define the faceted stepped pinnacles of the Eldorado’s two towers; even from far below and deep in the park, the sharp lines of these soaring pyramidal crowns are visible. #alwayslookingup #nycarchitecture #artdeco #theeldorado #nyclandmark

Good morning from our Palm Beach project where progress continues. The compact circular stair is complete and its smooth honed limestone treads and pale oak banister rise up in a sculptural twist. #peterpennoyerarchitects #ad100 #spiralstaircase #palmbeach #newconstruction

Progress at our Spanish-style house in Palm Beach….will include more in stories…lots of enticing details in this house. #peterpennoyerarchitects #palmbeach #newhouse

Doors open right onto the Penobscot Bay from the breakfast room in a new shingled house in Maine. Wood treillage ceiling, antique marble floor, plaster walls, and sea breezes, the room feels like a garden gazebo within the house. We were lucky to work with inspired interior designer, @tavernoftheheart, on this beautiful project. See this house and more our forthcoming book PETER PENNOYER ARCHITECTS: CITY | COUNTRY coming out this fall with @vendomepress.

We installed a new bathroom clad in walnut paneling and marble where a closet had been in our project on the coast of Massachusetts with @max_rollitt. This project, and many others, will appear in our book, PETER PENNOYER ARCHITECTS: CITY | COUNTRY, coming out in the Fall with @vendomepress. We can’t wait to show you more!

78 Main Street, then (ca 1890s) and now all dressed for July 4th. This brick house was built in the 1830s for Charles Coffin, son of one of Massachusetts’ wealthiest whale oil merchants in a simplified Greek Revival style, with flat topped doorway and brownstone pilasters… Christopher Capen in charge of masonry. He also worked on the “three bricks” across the street. 🇺🇸 #nantucket #nantucketsummer

Two cross axes allow for long vistas with the garden rooms off each axis. The axes meet at his oval swimming pool, placed in the center of the Great Bowl. #ladewgardens #monkton #maryland

The rich palette at Homewood House never ceases to inspire... the view into the blue drawing room from the vivid green reception hall and then looking down the bright yellow central passage with fanlights and windows along the axis to take advantage of natural light. #homewood #homewoodhouse #baltimore

Historic photos from Barberrys, Harrie T. Lindeberg's house in Mill Neck for Nelson Doubleday. To the right you can see the whitewashed brick walls, sloping tiled roof, and green shutters of the house. In 1919, Doubleday hired the Olmsted Brothers to design the landscape, including this rectangular flower garden and an allee of cedars announced by two peacocks which was centered on the library door. #summerhasbegun #harrietlindeberg

There is always much more to delve into with Delano & Aldrich and so many more details to bewitch…like this carved swan, one of a pair, on the entry of Dennenhuis, in Brussels, designed by the firm in 1936. #delanoandaldrich #stonework #stonecarving #frontdoor
