Minimalism at its most pure and elegant is captured at this striking hilltop estate, which was designed by world-renowned Chinese artist Ai Weiwei in collaboration with the esteemed Swiss design firm, HHF Architects. The only U.S. residence ever designed by the acclaimed artist, the home celebrates light and space with high-ceilinged streamlined rooms framed by vast glass panels that showcase the wonderful mountain vistas and expanses of solid wall that provide a stunning gallery-like environment for art. Magnificent in detail with immense structural integrity and an unrivaled modernist aesthetic throughout, the one-of-a-kind residence enjoys a beautifully designed setting enhanced with a wide array of specimen trees.Clad in aluminum, the silver-hued main house contrasts beautifully with the rust-colored guest house, both beautifully situated to take full advantage of the blissful landscape, which includes a heated pool, meandering trails and views of the Catskill Mountains, Taconic Hills and Berkshire Mountains. Ideally situated within 2 hours of Manhattan, this totally private setting enjoys proximity to Hudson – only 15 minutes away, as well as nearby Red Hook, Millerton, Rhinebeck and Great Barrington.
