House in Scotch Cove

This home is located within a meadow at the edge of the ocean with spectacular views of Graves Island. Designed for a retired couple, this house is centered around extended family and enjoying the outdoors. The project consists of the main house, a studio/workshop, and a shed with a photovoltaic array for powering the buildings. The dramatic ocean views unfold along the south and east elevations and multiple elements within the house extend dwelling out into the landscape. The stone hearth, housing the indoor and outdoor fireplace, slides out of the façade to stitch together interior and exterior sitting areas. The laminated timber structure marches through the building and across the site shaping the spaces under it and forming a covered outdoor dining area.
