Structural System

Steel moment frame system with engineered wood infill.  Use of large expanses of glass required that the steel frame be hidden within the narrow wall cavity while providing adequate vertical and lateral resistance to the required load combinations set forth by local building code.  Slender tie rods were utilized in select locations to minimize deflections on cantilevers while remaining hidden inside the wall cavity.

Large floating fireplace required all structure to be hung from above utilizing a steel frame with light gage infill.

Lighting

Interior ambient lighting: Orsman Design worked in conjunction with the interior designer in the selection of lamps and other decorative elements to ensure that they worked in cohesion with all of the architectural lighting. Consistency of the color temperature was paramount.

Downlights: MR-16 down lights were utilized.  These are fully trimless with conical trims and a deep recess of the aperture, providing the least amount of glare. All fixtures are 45-degree adjustable with softening lenses.

Tasklighting: For more task-oriented spaces, Orsman Design specified flush LED linear fixtures in order to ensure the ability to adequately brighten the space. High output, dimmability, and again the correct color temperature were crucial.

Exterior: The design had a focus on the architecture, plantings and other specific details. Orman Design avoided over lighting, but instead created warmth, intrigue and depth while respecting the scale of the residence in its surroundings.

Dimming system or other lighting controls: The Lutron system allows for absolute flexibility. Orsman Design allowed for more circuits per room to give the ability to add more drama through individual light settings.

Energy

Energy management or building automation system: Taking advantage of its location and availability water suitable for installation of a geothermal system, the Ferry Road home’s HVAC system was designed with aesthetics, comfort and sustainability in mind.  The system was designed and installed by Weber and Grahn Conditioning Corp, Craig Rietmann - Mechanical Engineer and head HVAC project manager.
Two open loop geothermal wells service 5 heat pumps for 16 two-stage heating and cooling zones. Of special note is the custom designed wine room which features a 3 sided glass enclosure.  Weber and Grahn’s custom designed wine room system allows for environmental control of temperature and humidity to seamlessly tie into the architectural beauty of this unique focal point.
Energy efficient condensing boilers are utilized for a 27 zone radiant heating system.  The differences in flooring materials and room orientations required the creative assignment of radiant heat zoning utilizing both radiant subflooring panels as well as embedded radiant loops.  Use of two stage heating, steam humidification systems and integrated energy management controls help maximize the home’s energy efficiency, homeowner comfort while maintaining the home’s unique architectural character.
