John C. and Binford Carr House is a historic home located at Durham, Durham County, North Carolina. It was built in 1958, and is a one-story, "T"-shaped brick, steel, and glass Modern Movement style dwelling with a flat roof. It originally had 2,337 square feet and employs a Japanese aesthetic with a courtyard plan, a copper door with a simple copper appliqué design, and two sets of Shoji rice paper doors. Binford Carr sold the property in December 2009 to Mark and Mimi Hansen. She also sold these new owners an empty, buildable lot next to the house. The Hansens and the owners of the adjacent property to the east purchased the lot together, and divided it into two lots to make it unbuildable, thus protecting it from development. The Binford-Carr house now sits on .699 acres. The story of the purchase was featured in Atomic Ranch Magazine. ("In the Nick of Time", #26, Summer 2010.) The Binford-Carr house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.〔 Kenneth Hobgood (AIA, winner of the prestigious Kamphofner prize) built a contemporary addition to the house in 2012. He brought the house to 4000 sq ft in size. Hobgood uses a glass bridge to connect the original modernist masterpiece with the contemporary addition. The glass bridge and cantilevered office designed by Hobgood overlook the Hope Valley Golf Course in Durham, North Carolina. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「John C. and Binford Carr House」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
