Team Kipp recently received “Best Rural” Award

“Randall J. Kipp Architecture received the “Best Rural” Award for the stunning River Point Home, a 2,800 square foot residence situated on a small peninsula just off the Potomac River. With polished concrete floors and reclaimed heart pine posts and beams, the residence was designed to symbiotically connect the interior spaces with the beautiful natural surroundings. Large 6’ wide x 10’ tall door panels by LaCantina maximize views of the water on three sides of the home and glide smoothly with minimal effort.”

Our friends at the Rappahannock Record shared this article about the honors:

Randall Kipp Architecture receives national recognition

Randall Kipp Architecture, 81 King Carter Drive, Irvington, recently received national recognition from Architizer and LaCantina Doors.

Kipp was selected as the “Best of Rural Residential” in the 2020 Best of LaCantina competition for a project in Callao.

“We are in the company of extraordinary talent and it’s great to see our project in Callao, Virginia showcased alongside incredible projects from New Orleans, Los Angeles and all around the country,” said administration and marketing coordinator Whitney Lang.

The home is a 2,800-squarefoot residence on a small peninsula just off the Potomac River. With polished concrete floors and reclaimed heart pine posts and beams, the residence was designed to symbiotically connect the interior spaces with the beautiful natural surroundings, said Lang. Large 6-foot by 10-foot sliding door panels by LaCantina maximize views

of the water on three sides of the home and glide smoothly with minimal effort.

The design team for this project included architect Randall Kipp, architectural designer Keith Meberg and interior designer Lauren Davenport.

Randall Kipp Architecture is a full service architectural studio specializing in modern residential and light commercial designs. More photos from this project can be found at kipparchitecture.com.
