This remodel of a mid century gem is located in the town of Lincoln, MA a hot bed of modernist homes inspired by Gropius’ own house built nearby in the 1940’s. By the time the house was built, modernism had evolved from the Gropius era, to incorporate the rural vibe of Lincoln with spectacular exposed wooden beams and deep overhangs. The design rejects the traditional New England house with its enclosing wall and inward posture. The low pitched roofs, open floor plan, and large windows openings connect the house to nature to make the most of its rural setting. Photo by: Nat Rae Photography

We had the opportunity to develop a rare vacant lot in SE Portland creating a custom single family residence on the property with an ADU and a tiny home pad. The site is very narrow and has a 15' grade change making it even more unique. The design team used this to our advantage to frame views of the wooded neighborhood. Making you feel secluded while being in the city. We carved or pulled into the mass of the house to create exterior space connected to each primary space of the house (living room, kitchen, primary bedroom and secondary bedroom. We used locally sourced materials throughout the structure to give it a local vernacular aesthetic.

The public and private spaces surround a centrally located stairwell that is naturally lit by a skylight.
