On the Deane Residence, Great Neck, NY

"a series of unfolding modules"

"The steps broaden as you go down, like widening ripples on the water's surface."

The jutting forms of the bedrooms, the library and the kitchen meet to create a central space that resembles a village square. That is the living room."

"The form of the house on the slope has the look of a man-made hill."

"In many ways, this is a tree house."
