Traditionally-inspired Custom Homes – New England and California
Uniting historical references and contemporaneous design sensibilities,
harmonizing structure with site, and delivering attentive service and passion

Reflecting upon the vernacular seasonal retreats of another time;
a digital actualization, a ‘sense of place,’ — the water’s great, linger a bit

Homes with contemporary flair — from rambling ranch to cozy cottage
Revealing dynamic interior space transparently through expressive massings;
bringing the outdoors inside and moving the indoors outside

Spec houses, designed with foresight to become inviting distinctive homes
Taking clues from a site's unique characteristics, challenges, and complexities;
resolving restrictive parameters and finding integrated responsive solutions

Vivamus scelerisque nibh at mi vulputate, eget posuere ante sollicitudin;
pellentesque id eros sed neque iaculis consectetur, morbi sed lorem dictum.

Aenean justo lectus, rutrum vitae mi a, fermentum finibus neque
Nulla consectetur, urna at commodo ultrices, ex orci porta velit, eu ornare nisi neque sed risus;
nam fringilla lobortis aliquet, in ut ligula fermentum, fermentum erat non, egestas sapien.

Adeptness with new-school tools helps to immerse audiences into the world of digital magic. Content throughout this website was accomplished with disciplined patience and attention to detail; with my hand and mouse. A couple of the models presented were my virtual interpretation of another’s work, as noted, on the ‘Revit Models’ page. Lessons learned from traditional architectural training inform my process and enrich my work.
The featured projects were envisioned with Revit, AutoCad, and Photoshop; software often used together. These tools improve creativity, productivity and efficiency. The ease at iterating complex three dimensional forms is astounding. Working models are viewable from unlimited perspectives. Elements can be fine-tuned until the orchestral composition sings!
On the construction side, emerging technologies will offer new prospects for those agile enough to adapt. Means and methods will transform the industry allowing for exciting new architectural forms and vocabularies.

A philosophy with balance and perspective at its core is ready to face challenges.
Tight control and management of the tools helps deliver efficiency along with increased productivity.
And, spontaneity and unbound enthusiasm can lead to more fluid creativity.
Either strategy has its pros and cons, benefits and risks.
But often, serendipitous discoveries arise when rules are challenged by boundless enterprise.

Working on a drawing board helped develop patience and strengthen abilities to critically think through problems. Old-school training helps to envision and execute ideas — today. Inspiration and design that pushes past the perceived limits of the computer or any applied software. Below is a selection of work from various architectural offices; credited on the ‘Buildings’ page. Some predates the digital revolution.
My creative process embraces a true hands-on approach from abstract conceptualization to concrete realization. I study the problem and devise alternative solutions for the offering. A keen appreciation for the complexities of the seemingly simplest of projects to those with more interconnected pieces. This workflow helps guide a path forward.
Collaboration with colleagues, coordination with consultants and valued client feedback contribute to success. Continuous iterative refinements lead to a result that exceeds defined goals and objectives.
