Noyes moved his family to New Canaan in the mid-1940s. He designed Noyes House II with the intention of expanding his family while expressing his design ideals. With a wing dedicated to bedrooms and rest and a parallel wing designated for gathering, the house is brought together by an outdoor courtyard that gracefully combines the two separate functions.
