Custom Charred Cedar Exterior Cloaks a Car-Lover?s Dream Retreat
Hidden deep inside Hudson Valley, Kerhonkson, the TinkerBox is much more than just another serene escape set in the woods. This striking little retreat was designed by Studio MM Architect to specifically meet the demands of a car lover who wished to escape big city rush whenever possible. A large garage is the main feature around which the rest of the house revolves even as a cool wine cellar and furniture workshop make up the ground level. Beyond functionality, it is the dark charred cedar siding that stands out visually here as the exterior exudes a minimal, organic vibe.Charred cedar siding gives the exterior of the Tinkerbox a dashing finishStep inside and the main living area feels spacious and welcoming with a fully-equipped kitchen and dining area creating a breezy living zone. Custom furniture designed by Studio MM Architect add to the uniqueness of the home as the dining table and the sparkling metallic lighting fixture above it steal the show.
