Hudson Woods retreat is part of a larger residential project located 100 miles away from New York and including 26 modern and energy efficient homes.

Crafted by Lang Architecture, each vacation home embraces the virtues of simplicity and honesty.

Sturdy timber construction is set off by sliding barn door window shutters.

Doors inside are hewn of solid timber, and the crafted iron hardware is solid and stylish.

Coming in from a hike, there is a serious mud room.

Right after you shed your layers, a place to grab some firewood as you head inside.

All the beautifully crafted details work perfectly with each other.

The guiding principle is rediscovering the things that matter – the simple life and family.

Local craftsmen collaborated in building the elegantly simple freestanding kitchen island and pantry units.

The interior is modern and warm, with an abundance of local white oak surfaces and details.

The retreats of Hudson Woods are intended to provide a place where one can find peace and do it elegantly.

The humble and unassuming design provides real quiet and peace, a real respite far from the jostling demands of city life.

A place to come home to and love.

Over and over again.
