Overview

Overlooking the island-dotted Penobscot Bay to the east, our client's parcel on Islesboro was raw and remote. We worked to site the project and design a home that is evocative of traditional coastal Maine homes (built over generations, with a rambling floor plan) with modern amenities and a focus on the ocean view.

Interiors

The interior palette is warm, light, minimal, and refined. It's beachy without being fussy. Airy without being overly precious.

The Location

Accessible only by ferry, our design and development approach for this home takes into account the difficulty of getting materials and manpower to the site. We explored panelization and other construction methods to reduce back-and-forth trips on the ferry and to get more out of each shortened workday on the island.
