A family compound on Martha’s Vineyard overlooking coastal wetlands and beach. The addition of a kitchen, outdoor and work-from-home spaces, laundry and storage, and renovations to existing bathrooms and mudroom make this 1990s compound even better suited to multigenerational living.
Chappaquiddick renovation
In collaboration with Wonwoo Park and David Ottinger, two ca. 1740 buildings in Concord, MA are to be rebuilt, one within the other. The historic home will be rebuilt within the barn, and used in part as a “teaching house,” a visual record of the architectural styles and construction methodologies of the last 300 years in New England.

CAPTAIN’S house
This new home is built for a sea captain, educator, and mandolin player. Within a strict budget and a 640 sf footprint, this small home blends the efficiency, craftsmanship, and coziness of shipbuilding with the airiness of double-height and lofted spaces.
cOBBOSSEECONTEE CABINS
The restoration of three 1919 lake-side cabins. A close collaboration with a talented antiques dealer and fashion designer, these homes are part showroom part gathering space for reuniting friends and family. These buildings hope to camouflage in the Maine woods, through color and material palettes and simple historical detailing.
In collaboration with Wonwoo Park and David Ottinger, a modern barn addition to the Rufus Porter Museum, dedicated to the eponymous inventor, muralist, and Scientific American founder. The new building will anchor the campus with indoor and outdoor gathering spaces, and galleries that display early 19th century murals by Rufus Porter, which were rescued from two home demolitions in Maine. The new structure links buildings from 1840 and 1790 and pays homage to their history, in its massing, contours, and fenestration.
