This modern green home offers both a vacation destination on Cape Cod near local family members and an opportunity for rental income. FAMILY ROOTS. A West Coast couple living in the San Francisco Bay Area sought a permanent East Coast vacation home near family members living on Cape Cod. As academic professionals focused on sustainability, they sought a green, energy efficient home that was well-aligned with their values. With no green homes available for sale on Cape Cod, they decided to purchase land near their family and build their own. SLOPED SITE. Comprised of a 3/4 acre lot nestled in the pines, the steeply sloping terrain called for a plan that embraced and took advantage of the slope. Of equal priority was optimizing solar exposure, preserving privacy from abutters, and creating outdoor living space. The design accomplished these goals with a simple, rectilinear form, offering living space on the both entry and lower/basement levels. The stepped foundation allows for a walk-out basement level with light-filled living space on the down-hill side of the home. The traditional basement on the eastern, up-hill side houses mechanical equipment and a home gym. The house welcomes natural light throughout, captures views of the forest, and delivers entertainment space that connects indoor living space to outdoor deck and dining patio. MODERN VISION. The clean building form and uncomplicated finishes pay homage to the modern architectural legacy on the outer Cape. Durable and economical fiber cement panels, fixed with aluminum channels, clad the primary form. Cedar clapboards provide a visual accent at the south-facing living room, which extends a single roof plane to cover the entry porch. SMART USE OF SPACE. On the entry level, the “L”-shaped living, dining, and kitchen space connects to the exterior living, dining, and grilling spaces to effectively double the home’s summertime entertainment area. Placed at the western end of the entry level (where it can retain privacy but still claim expansive downhill views) is the master suite with a built-in study. The lower level has two guest bedrooms, a second full bathroom, and laundry. The flexibility of the space—crucial in a house with a modest footprint—emerges in one of the guest bedrooms, which doubles as home office by opening the barn-style double doors to connect it to the bright, airy open stair leading up to the entry level. Thoughtful design, generous ceiling heights and large windows transform the modest 1,100 sf* footprint into a well-lit, spacious home. *(total finished space is 1800 sf) RENTAL INCOME. The property works for its owners by netting rental income when the owners are home in San Francisco. The house especially caters to vacationers bound for nearby Mayo Beach and includes an outdoor shower adjacent to the lower level entry door. In contrast to the bare bones cottages that are typically available on the Cape, this home offers prospective tenants a modern aesthetic, paired with luxurious and green features. Durable finishes inside and out will ensure longevity with the heavier use that comes with a rental property. COMFORT YEAR-ROUND. The home is super-insulated and air-tight, with mechanical ventilation to provide continuous fresh air from the outside. High performance triple-paned windows complement the building enclosure and maximize passive solar gain while ensuring a warm, draft-free winter, even when sitting close to the glass. A properly sized air source heat pump offers efficient heating & cooling, and includes a carefully designed the duct distribution system to provide even comfort throughout the house. The super-insulated envelope allows us to significantly reduce the equipment capacity, duct size, and airflow quantities, while maintaining unparalleled thermal comfort. ENERGY EFFICIENT. The building’s shell and mechanical systems play instrumental roles in the home’s exceptional performance. The building enclosure reduces the most significant energy glutton: heating. Continuous super-insulation, thorough air sealing, triple-pane windows, and passive solar gain work together to yield a miniscule heating load. All active energy consumers are extremely efficient: an air source heat pump for heating and cooling, a heat pump hot water heater, LED lighting, energy recovery ventilation (ERV), and high efficiency appliances. The result is a home that uses 70% less energy than a similar new home built to code requirements. OVERALL. The home embodies the owners’ goals and values while comprehensively enabling thermal comfort, energy efficiency, a vacation respite, and supplementary income.

New Custom Vanity maintains existing water connections for the 2 sinks and is defined by the intricate "Hoshi" ceramic tile pattern. To emphasize the pattern, we used a grey contrasting grout. Vanity is raised up from the floor level, to give the illusion of floating and contains LED toe-kick lighting activated by motion sensor. Robert Uplift recessed Medicine Cabinets and LED recessed downlight finished with square white trim. LED strip lighting concealed above the tiled hood. Adjacent walls are tiled in a large format rectangular darker linen pattern porcelain tile to contrast with the "Hoshi" white vanity tile. Floor tile is a black 2"x2" that has been used for many years in commercial washrooms, complete with coordinating cove base tiles components. Photo: Jamie Snavley

A remodeled ranch-style home a block from the beach in Capitola. Client is a active dad who took the home down to studs during the remodel. He loves open-floor plans and clean lines, so we matched the landscaping to the interior aesthetic with sleek, repeating concrete walls, architectural plant forms including succulents and monochromatic colors for an overall minimalist, textural effect. In the back garden, a custom wood bench provides a spot for the towels while hot tubbing. Pea gravel and light-colored flagstone comprise curving paths connecting garden elements and end in a casual firepit area. Retaining walls in the back garden provide the dual function of slope retention and planting beds, which have both foundational plants and culinary herbs.

This Tisbury Lake house is a renovation that was designed to open the house up to highlight the natural beauty of the waterfront plot. Our design aims to blend the house into its natural wooded area as well as allowing the family to enjoy the area from inside and out. The large wooden wrap around deck is relaxing and perfect for outdoor activities near the water. The cathedral ceiling and succession of classic white trim windows gives the living room an inviting, bright and peaceful ambiance that is characteristic of our aesthetic. Photo Credit:

The Ipe deck that we constructed is a perfect platform for outdoor yoga. The solid hardwood surface provides an ideal balance of stability and cushioning, allowing the practitioner to be comfortable while performing their postures. The water feature adds even more tranquillity to this space, creating a peaceful environment in which to practice yoga. We also created a set of concrete retaining walls on the south side of the yard. These walls help to raise and extend the available outdoor living space, allowing for more activities in this space than ever before. The durable construction of these walls will ensure that they remain strong and resilient for years to come. Overall, the combination of Ipe decking and concrete retaining walls has given this outdoor space a completely new look and feel. It is now an inviting area in which to practice yoga, entertain guests, or just spend time with family and friends. We are proud of the transformation we have been able to bring about, and hope that our clients can enjoy their enhanced outdoor living space for years to come.

With its oriental plantings, privacy screens and raised activity areas, this poolscape brings the serenity of a Japanese garden to mind - exactly as the homeowner intended. The rectangular pool is finished in grey Armorcoat with porcelain tile edging and Indiana limestone coping and decking. Two sheer descent waterfalls, illuminated fibre-optically at night, cascade gracefully from the elevated natural stone corner walls to complete this appealing tableau. (18 x 36, rectangular)
