Located on a secluded 1.6-acre lot in McLean, Virginia, the Langley Ridge Residence reexamines the relationship between architecture and landscape through a comprehensive remodeling effort that spans both interior and exterior domains. The design process was organized around four primary interventions: the addition of a three-story volume to the existing residence, the reconnection of the pool and tennis court to the main house through a reimagined landscape framework, the introduction of a new pool house, and the enhancement of the arrival sequence and vehicular circulation at the front entry.Rather than treating these components as discrete projects, the design approach sought to weave them into a single, cohesive spatial narrative. The architecture mediates between the formal and the informal, stitching together the built environment with moments of openness, movement, and repose. The new addition extends the house vertically and horizontally while maintaining a dialogue with the original structure, allowing for expanded living quarters without overwhelming the scale of the existing architecture.Outdoor elements—including terraces, walkways, and gathering spaces—are choreographed to create a continuous spatial experience from arrival to retreat. By softening transitions and carefully calibrating views and circulation, the project blurs boundaries between interior and exterior, framing the landscape as an integral part of daily life. The result is a residence that offers both clarity and complexity, unified by a design language that prioritizes flow, material continuity, and a heightened sense of place.
