Roger Yepsen

Roger Yepsen grew up in a house of the future, a John Johannsen-designed Modernist slab near Schenectady, N.Y. Sunday drivers would brake to a stop just to stare at the home–and through it.

Today, Roger lives with his wife and children in a 200-year-old stone Pennsylvania Dutch farmhouse that has been expanded with a timber-frame addition.
