The Owners of a home that had been consumed by the moving dunes of Lake Michigan wanted a home that would not only stand the test of aesthetic time, but survive the vicissitudes of the environment. With the assistance of the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality as well as the consulting civil engineer and the City of Grand Haven Zoning Department, a soil stabilization site plan was developed based on raising the new home’s main floor elevation by almost three feet, implementing erosion studies, screen walls and planting indigenous, drought tolerant xeriscaping. The screen walls, as well as the low profile of the home and the use of sand trapping marrum beachgrass all help to create a wind shadow buffer around the home and reduce blowing sand erosion and accretion. The Owners wanted to minimize the stylistic baggage which consumes most “cottage” residences, and with the Architect created a home with simple lines focused on the view and the natural environment. Sustainable energy requirements on a budget directed the design decisions regarding the SIPs panel insulation, energy systems, roof shading, other insulation systems, lighting and detailing. Easily constructed and linear, the home harkens back to mid century modern pavilions with present day environmental sensitivities and harmony with the site. James Yochum

A barn-style door in the entry hall conceals what is now the Master Bedroom. Whereas this area was originally part of the open space, Adamik and Churney agreed to build the wall to create more personal environment. The stainless hardware of the rolling door system strikes an even balance between industrial and residential design, with its exposed mechanics and refined finish. Having the door painted the same color as the walls helps it disappear when closed. Door Hardware: barndoorhardware.com; Pendant Light: Visual Comfort

From the street, we kept the 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom addition on the top concealed by a simple shed dormer which reduces the impression of bulk and keeps the house looking cozy and comfortable. Wood carriage doors and a recessed front porch given some prominence help create a welcoming street presence. John Wilbanks Photography

The new kitchen space was once the ill-conceived location of a guest bath and a closet for the master bedroom. We solved the layout issue by placing the kitchen where the guest bath was and a new guest bath in the former location of the kitchen. This opened the living, dining and kitchen area of the home to create a space that is ideal for entertaining.

The facade of this home is traditional in feel and is classically proportioned. It combines a number of green techniques and technologies to reduce its energy usage and its associated carbon footprint. Solar thermal panels used for heating the domestic hot water as well as assisting with the radiant floor system are visible to the left. Photo: Kipnis Architecture + Planning
