ARCHITECTURE SHOWCASE Traditional Meets Contemporary

FROM THE ARCHITECT : “ After purchasing a new single-family property on an unfinished lot , the clients wanted to transform it into a traditional New Englandstyle home that could serve as their summer beach home . We created a home with comfortable spaces , room for extended guests and multiple entertaining areas while emphasizing indoor / outdoor living . We delivered that while maintaining traditional materials and traditional massing with some modern living elements that allow for effortless summer beach style . The clients loved it so much they ’ ve asked me to help refresh their main home to incorporate many of the same elements we used in the summer house .”
ABOUT THE ARCHITECT : “ I am inspired by our local built environment , humble materials , classical building forms and traditional building details . I have a strong interest in the reinterpretation of classical building forms , blended with contemporary open floor plans . I have a stronger interest in helping to guide clients to ways of improving the quality of their lives through adapting the built environment to meet their needs .”
