- [Residence on Buzzards Bay](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/residence-on-buzzards-bay-pj-vj~1217910)
  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 8
  - Description: Multiple renovations through the twentieth century had reduced this house to a rabbit warren of small rooms and winding hallways. Through a full renovation of all areas, we worked with decorator Bunny Williams to restore the charm and character of this classic Atlantic seacoast shingle-style house. We realigned rooms and hallways to open views to the harbor, and catch cross breezes. Vintage hardware, window glass, plaster, and mouldings lent character to the spaces. Finally, the addition of a sc…
- [Maine Coastal Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/maine-coastal-residence-pj-vj~1215935)
  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 6
  - Description: Located on the rocky coast of Maine, this house shows the robust detailing of northern examples of the Shingle Style. All the stone of the foundations and walls was quarried on site, giving the impression of the house growing out of the adjacent cliff. An oversize chimney crowns the house and promontory, and provides an anchor for the shingled wings, towers and porches. The house follows the jagged line of the coast giving all rooms open views across the ocean. Architect - Douglass Wright Photog…
- [Park Avenue Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/park-avenue-residence-pj-vj~1216570)

- [Riverside Drive Apartment](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/riverside-drive-apartment-pj-vj~1216108)
  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 5
  - Description: This pre-war apartment with beautiful views over the Hudson River had been designed for another era, and many of the rooms had fallen into disuse, with the family crowding into the TV room at the back of the apartment. Through minimal replanning of the halls, we restored the views (and sunlight) to the full apartment, making it an elegant home for modern living. Architect - Douglas Wright Photography - David Sundberg
- [Southampton Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/southampton-residence-pj-vj~221175)
  - Location: Southampton, NY
  - Photos: 7
  - Description: Like early examples of the Shingle Style, this house dresses up the basic forms of early American architecture with classical details. The formal, symmetrical front reflects a centrally organized plan, while in back, the broad porch and its oversize Doric columns knit together the interior rooms with the spaces of the lush, mature landscape. We worked with David Easton and Jose Carlino of David Easton Inc on the restrained palette - grey outside, taupe inside - provides an elegant backdrop to re…
- [Nantucket Cottage](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/nantucket-cottage-pj-vj~197601)
  - Location: Nantucket, MA
  - Photos: 5
  - Description: Generating all its energy through a wind turbine and solar panels, this off-the-grid house merges modern technology with the historic forms of Nantucket. Separate bedroom volumes gather around a Great Room and Deck, evoking an image of fishermen's Cottages on the shore. All rooms have multiple exposures, immersing one in the beautiful dune setting Architect - Douglas Wright Photography - T.G. Olcott Photography
- [Park Avenue South](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/park-avenue-south-pj-vj~336568)
  - Location: New York, NY
  - Photos: 4
  - Description: A lush palette of wood vestibules and rich marbles offsets the clean, white openness of this loft apartment. The detailing recalls crisp, mid-century French apartments and provides a strong background to the colorful decoration.
- [Further Lane Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/further-lane-residence-pj-vj~293948)
  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 8
  - Description: Recalling the grand Shingle Style of McKim, Mead & White, the Hamptons, and Newport, Rhode Island, this house uses geometry and balanced forms to bring order to a large composition. The house stretches out along the rustic dunes so that nearly all the rooms open to porches, decks, and magnificent views of the ocean. The crisp, white Shingle Style details frame important moments both inside and out, providing structure for the interior decoration and vivid counterpoint to the exterior shingle env…
- [New Jersey Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/new-jersey-residence-pj-vj~1216065)
  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 4
  - Description: A 1906 shingle-style classic served as the backdrop for this full renovation. We retained some of the original detailing and used it as inspiration for a more modern, open feel between rooms. The sleek, Poggenpohl kitchen provided the modern amenities within this traditional home. Architect - Douglas Wright Photography - Peter Kubilus
- [Manhattan Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/manhattan-residence-pj-vj~1230025)

- [Connecticut Farmhouse](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/connecticut-farmhouse-pj-vj~1229992)
  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 8
  - Description: Renovations to this historic 1830's Connecticut farmhouse started with the directive, "I don't want to lose any of the character and history of the place." From what had become a rabbit warren of rooms over nearly two centuries, we created a plan for a modern family. We recast the details of the original house in a completely new layout: original baseboards, doors, trims, and flooring complement a modern design that opens views from spacious rooms to the beautiful surrounding mountains.
- [East Hampton Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/east-hampton-residence-pj-vj~1230103)
  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 7
  - Description: Working with decorator Bunny Williams and landscape architect Edmund Hollander, we restored this classic stucco and shingle house to its rightful place in the Hamptons in the historic Maidstone Club area. We replanned the site with a pool house, porches, terraces, and paths linking new interiors to the “rooms” of the garden. A classic exterior of historic colors contrasts with the vibrant interiors. New woodwork details create a traditional framework for the lush decorating and modern art.
- [Winged Foot Pool House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/winged-foot-pool-house-pj-vj~1242530)
  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 5
  - Description: Winged Foot Golf Club occupies a special place in golf history and tradition. The Tillinghast designed course has hosted four U.S. Opens, and the historic clubhouse designed by Clifford Wendehack opened to immediate renown in the 1920's. Considering the past, present, and future of this historic campus, we worked with the club on a comprehensive analysis and master plan of all the built facilities. Keeping the member experience primary, we planned phased renovations that would enhance or restore…
