九方之家是多学科艺术家扎克·基特尼克与著名建筑师弗朗西斯科·加莱托经过数年合作而诞生的作品。它的核心是一座真正的乡村别墅，融合并受到德国、奥地利和斯堪的纳维亚乡村景观中布鲁塔利主义中世纪别墅的启发。这个家在结构上是极简的，以支持不可避免的极大生活方式——一个庞大的艺术收藏和独特的家具与充满活力的绘画工作室、探索周围自然的户外装备共同蓬勃发展。

家的每个功能都是为了既实用又美观而构思的；毕竟，负责设计的团队花费了超过两年的时间规划一个解决所有可能的人体工程学和环境问题的设计。由杰出的建筑师和教授约翰·赫杜克在20世纪中期发展而来的九方生活理念，深刻体现在家居的空间分布和流动性中。

在底楼是双客厅、餐厅和厨房，它们彼此相连，并以一个大理石壁炉和三扇通往外部露台的大玻璃门为中心，露台可享有令人叹为观止的景色。厨房配备了丹麦设计的Reform橱柜、巴尔迪吉奥大理石和Fisher Paykel电器。一个办公室/绘画工作室、一个洗手间、一个干吧和一个洗衣房构成了主层的完整布局。

家的中心建筑特色是通向二楼的坚固白橡木楼梯。尽管上层的四个卧室宽敞，但更加私密和亲密，每个卧室都有两侧的大窗户，与外面的宁静景观相互交流，并共享两个大浴室。

九方之家的独特之处在于高能效，因其绝缘材料超出了所有当前标准，配备多区域中央空调、辐射加热地板、坚固的200磅内部门、哑光镍科勒器具、铸铁水槽，以及坚固锻造和机械加工的黄铜及哑光镍门硬件。

环绕房屋的9英亩土地，尽可能保持原貌，分布着林木和开放区域，以及蜿蜒的小道穿过整个物业。九方之家距离哈德逊、大巴灵顿和米勒顿仅20分钟车程，距离纽约市2小时车程。这个家距离科派克湖仅几分钟路程。

The Nine-Square House was born of a several-year-long collaboration between multi-disciplinary artist Zak Kitnick & esteemed architect Francesco Galetto. At its core, an authentic country house, it joins & (and is inspired by) the vernacular of brutalist mid-century villas peppered throughout German, Austrian, & Scandinavian rural landscapes. The home is minimalist in structure so that it may support an inevitably maximal lifestyle - an extensive art collection & distinctive furnishings thrive in this home alongside an overflowing painting studio, outdoor gear for exploring the surrounding nature.
Every feature of the home was conceived to be both functional & pleasing to the eye; after all, the team behind the house spent more than 2 years planning a design that addressed every conceivable ergonomic & environmental question. The nine-square philosophy of living, developed in the mid-1900s by the incredible architect & professor John Hejduk, is very much felt in the home's distribution & flow of spaces.
On the ground floor are the double living room, dining area, & kitchen, all flowing into each other & anchored by a marble fireplace & 3 large glass doors opening to the exterior terrace with a breathtaking view. The kitchen features Danish-designed Reform cabinetry, Bardiglio marble, & Fisher Paykel appliances. An office/painting studio, a washroom, a dry bar, & laundry room complete the main level.
The central architectural piece of the home is the solid white oak staircase leading up to the second floor. The 4 bedrooms upstairs, though spacious, are much more private & intimate, each with large windows on 2 sides, communing with the serene & quiet landscape outside, and sharing 2 sizable bathrooms.
Distinguishing features of the Nine-Square House include high energy efficiency due to insulation exceeding all current standards, multi-zone central AC, radiant heated floors, solid 200 lb interior doors, satin nickel Kohler fixtures, cast iron sinks, & solid forged & machined brass & satin nickel door hardware.


The 9 acres of land around the house, perfect as it is, has been touched as little as possible. There are wooded & open areas, with meandering walking paths trailing through the property.
The Nine-Square House is just 20 minutes from Hudson, Great Barrington, & Millerton & 2 hours from New York City. The home is just a few minutes from Copake Lake. © 2025 OneKey™ MLS, LLC
