Mid-construction photography of Maison de Chigny. Architects dieterdietz.org recently completed a pair of houses: a refurbished 19th century building, and an entirely new structure. the brief called for a design that included shared and individual living spaces, allowing residents to live independently within a community of friends and their families. the new house, which references the form of the region’s barns, also helps create an interstitial courtyard within the uninterrupted landscape.
