New Residential
Designing a residence requires a great deal of sensitivity to the wishes of the client and their needs, both now and in the future. The home should not just be functional and well-built, but one that is a pleasure to occupy, beautiful to look at, and that makes the occupants' lives a bit easier. Hans Roegele has worked for the renowned Southern residential architect Ken Tate, and worked with a wide range of clients.
NY State Residence
At the client's request, the design was modeled on Mckim, Mead & White's Ochre Point or Goelet House in Newport, athough the house is signifcantly different in plan, massing and orientation. Unlike the original's seaside location, this sits on a commanding hillside lot with sweeping views over forests. However, as far as possible, the proportions of the facades and the individual elements were retained. Interior spaces include a front to back grand hall and a double height master bedroom with its own deck and suite of rooms.

New York State Residence
This 10,000sf residence near Manhattan is designed to take advantage of its hilltop views with broad porches and large windows. Interior halls align with windows to increase the sense of space and create a logical direction of movement. A steel structure allows for spacious rooms. The house is based on nearby classics, such as the Van Cortland Manor.
Lintels are load-bearing, and much of the stone is quarried on site. Cabinets (shown below) are from Crownpoint made from hardwood with dovetail drawers.

 Hamptons Mansion
Working with the well-known Interior Designer Bunny Williams while at Hart Howerton, Hans Roegele was primarily responsible for the interior design of this 20,000 square foot residence in the Hamptons. The style hearkened back to classic shingle style cottages while incorporating the latest amenities. |

New York Residence
This 8,300sf house is based on the Old English style, pioneered by architects such as Richard Norman Shaw, and Charles Voysey. It is designed to fit on a very narrow lot on a very steep slope, which limits the house's floor area and forces it to serve as a retaining wall. To mitigate the house's relative narrowness, the slope side walls are open with glazing, and all openings align on a window or patio door.

Connecticut Property
While focusing on the reconstruction of a converted 18th century barn, to house an accessory apartment and garages, this project also weaves in a new landscape using the same language of native plants, stone walls, maples, and meadows currently found on the property.
The building itself draws on the compact forms of regional architecture, and the ways it simply expresses purpose and structure. A rusticated classicisim will mirror the more formal elements of the entry pavilion and house. In the building, tall, light-filled spaces open up to the forest and pond close by.
