Located close to the coastline at Cable Bay, this family home was constrained by planning requirements to the footprint of the original dwelling. The challenge became an opportunity to design a house that captures sweeping views, connects with the land, and endures the demands of a coastal environment.

The home is expressed as two distinct gable forms, joined by a central entry. From here, a picture-frame window draws the eye outward, immediately connecting visitors with the surrounding landscape and ocean views.

Durable materials and a simple, resilient form ensure the house will stand up to its exposed setting while providing a warm and contemporary family retreat.
