Ancient Material for Interior and Outdoor Living…

Our Fossil Wood, also known as Petrifi d Wood, comes from ancient trees that got covered with volcanic ash during an eruption.

Then through perfect preservation, these trees naturally transitioned to stone over the course of millions of years keeping their once organic form.

Our 4000-square-foot showroom is now open in Boston’s Park Plaza, showcasing interior and exterior landscape design materials dating between 20 and 280 MILLION YEARS OLD.

Welcome

I

P.S.

’m writing this letter just days after returning from the Daffodil Festival on Nantucket, where spring is springing, but proper layering is still essential.

Fortunately, as a lifelong New Englander, I’m accustomed to looking ahead with optimism.

Our annual Cape & Islands issue, produced well in advance of Memorial Day weekend, is packed I enjoyed the Daffodil Festival with, from with homes that encourage the left, Carey Karlan, Beth Dempsey, and Cami shedding of winter layers and Weinstein. celebrate the beauty of summer in this special region. If you’ve lived here long enough, you know the warmth is fleeting and that you’d best soak it up while you can. That’s why discerning homeowners in Wellfleet traded their traditional Shingle-style structure for a more modern abode that grants them seamless access to salt air via a water-facing wall of glass, steel, and stone. On Nantucket, a savvy design team skillfully rotated a historic home five degrees to not only pull back from the fragile coastal bank but to expand its ocean views. In Edgartown, a newly built home cleverly conceals a contemporary interior ideal for summer soirees. And, with deep respect for the area’s rich indigenous history, the low-profile design of an Aquinnah home lives in harmony with the land’s natural beauty while tipping its hat to Martha’s Vineyard’s original inhabitants, the Wampanoag, who continue to maintain a tribal presence on the island today.

There are many more inspiring homes in the pages ahead, selected with great care for your maximum summer enjoyment. So tuck into a sunny breakfast nook or find a perch on the patio at sundown. No matter the ills of the off-season, there’s little that time spent by the ocean can’t solve.

See you out there!

For the second summer in a row, 2019 New England Design Hall of Fame inductees Keith Moskow and Robert Linn will host Studio North in Chilmark. The weeklong intensive building workshop offers college-age students interested in architecture a chance to build something by hand— no experience required. Past projects include a Thoreau-style cabin and a portable dressing room and sauna. moskowlinn.com

Master roofer and Nantucket resident Jim Lydon of James Lydon, Sons & Daughters has a brilliant use for copper leftover from roofing jobs: custom handmade window boxes.

Unlike traditional wood flower boxes, which are prone to rot, Lydon’s copper creations will shine for years to come. jameslydon.com

Blues were the starting point for the cottage’s overall palette, but “yellow plays so nicely with blue,” notes designer Kendall Rabun, explaining the impetus behind this sunny guest room. The twin headboards are by Maine Woodworks, and the table is vintage.

n addition to an interior that had a certain “snap,” as she calls it, Kathleen had another important request of designer Kendall Rabun as they renovated the Nantucket cottage Kathleen and her husband had just bought: she wanted a large dining room table. Really big, in fact. One that seats twenty-four.

“Kendall kept saying to me, ‘Are you sure you want one that big?’ I said, yes!” remembers Kathleen.

Without Sandy, it wouldn’t be Clarke.

Spend an hour at a Clarke Showroom and one thing is clear: your time with a Clarke Consultant is the most valuable part of your kitchen journey.

While they’re not designers, these are the people designers call on when it comes to appliance recommendations. You won’t buy anything at Clarke, so there’s simply no pressure. What you can do is compare more Sub-Zero, Wolf and Cove models than anywhere in New England. Explore a living portfolio of kitchens created by the region’s top designers. You will leave inspired with new knowledge to make your appliance selections with confidence.

More than 20 years ago, Sandra Lashway left a career in home economics and education to join the Clarke team. She is expertise personified. Ask her anything about cooking and how to create your functional, beautiful kitchen.

The table, an expandable custom beauty with capstan pedestals from Dunes and Duchess, was a symbolic first purchase. Nantucket is synonymous with family for the couple—and they wanted a table that could accommodate three generations for summer potlucks and grill nights.

Kathleen’s Nantucket roots run deep.

She fell in love with Siasconset back in the sixties as a teenager vacationing with her grandmother, and then it became a family affair. Today, she and her husband’s cottage abuts houses owned by her daughter and son; the three backyards connect, enabling the five young grandchildren to run free.

In 2020, when the couple purchased that third piece of the family puzzle, Kathleen immediately turned to Rabun for a refresh. With the able assistance of architect Vallorie Oliver and builder TL Halford, Rabun first addressed a handful of larger projects: adding walls to

ABOVE: Rabun opted for a large-scale tile backsplash so it’s visible from across the open kitchen, dining room, and living room; the indoor/outdoor woven basket-weave-and-teak stools are from Made Goods.

create a second office, taking a few rooms down to the studs to layer in lighting and adjust door placement, creating a new powder room/laundry room, and turning the existing laundry area into a welcoming bright-blue mudroom.

With the structural changes complete, Rabun set out to transform a dated interior without making things look too new. “That squeaky brand-new vibe was not what we were going for,” says the designer. Rather, she sought to incorporate “lots of small-scale mixed patterns [note the tiled fireplace surround, the powder-room wallpaper, and the upholstered headboards and throw pillows] so it feels thoughtful and layered, along with vintage and

one-of-a-kind pieces.” A favorite find that Kathleen scored is the early-twentiethcentury impressionist rendering of a nostalgic Nantucket scene that hangs in the primary bedroom. “She was texting me from the auction,” remembers Rabun happily.

All these sweet touches that nod to a sense of place are, of course, balanced by a nothing-is-too-precious vibe. After all, it’s summer, and it’s time for the adults to open a bottle of rosé and the grandchildren to grab a seat at the (wipeable) kitchen island stools while they wait for the table to be set for another memorable gathering.

EDITOR'S NOTE: For details, see Resources.

CLOCKWISE FROM ABOVE: The primary bedroom, which opens to the wraparound deck, features a Galbraith & Paul fabric on the headboard and bed skirt. While renovating the guest bath, Rabun sought a spin on a porthole mirror; “the small red ceramic mirrors nailed it for me,” she says, “and Kathleen loves red, so it was a win-win.” In the blue guest room, “the mix of colors and patterns lends a ‘collected over time’ feel to the space,” says Rabun.

SPECIAL SPACES

Weaving History The rolling terrain of a coastal estate connects new and old buildings with activities the homeowners love.

BY MEAGHAN O’NEILL

T

he initial plan was straightforward: add a screened porch to the main house at an estate in Osterville so its owners could take better advantage of their seaside location in warmer months. But as one idea led to another, the family decided to undertake a design intervention that extended well beyond a veranda.

Having acquired neighboring parcels over time, the family’s space had grown to nineteen acres. Historic remnants of an earlier estate dotted the property, which the owners, along with architects at Shope Reno Wharton and landscape

For a nineteen-acre property on Cape Cod, Shope Reno Wharton architects designed a pool and recreation area that functions as a central meeting hub for the homeowners’ family and their frequent guests. The 4,600-squarefoot pool house, one of many outbuildings on the grounds, was situated to align views with a salt marsh and the ocean beyond.

Now, these charming references to the past sit among several additional outbuildings, including another guesthouse, yoga and art studios, and tennis courts.

TOP TO BOTTOM: Landscape architect David Hawk thoughtfully designed the grounds as a sequence of spaces that encourages wandering and discovering various casual and formal groves, gardens, and lawns, such as this one by the pool. Other outbuildings include a tranquil yoga studio sited near a rehabilitated pond. A shingled pavilion with a fireplace sits between the Har-Tru and platform tennis courts.

or large events. On the building’s opposite end, separated from the kitchen by a great room, an onsen—modeled on a Japanese bathing spa—offers “a very Zen-like, tranquil environment for reflection,” says Michael McClung, principal in charge and lead designer at Shope Reno Wharton. Underneath the pool house, a wine cellar and pickleball court offer additional ways to unwind.

Great thought was taken to create an immersive landscape that weaves together the buildings and gardens, lawns, groves, and terraces that were restored, rebuilt, or newly designed. Consciously devoid of defined walkways and routes (including driveways, which are hidden along the property’s perimeter), the grounds transition between formal and casual settings

GOOD BONES

Affectionately dubbed the Malibu House by its East Sandwich neighbors, the 2,400-square-foot year-round home overlooks Cape Cod Bay in the front and wetlands in the back, with decks providing views and entertaining space in either direction. Wooden slats recall beach cabanas, but white acrylic Cembrit panels keep the design from veering into rustic.

“The owners asked for a clean, modern, and bright home that maximized the gorgeous views,” says architect Alissa Hike Harris of Salt Architecture.

“Rather than relying on the typical Cape Cod beach cottage to speak to our sense of place, we looked to the Cape Cod Modernist houses for inspiration, specifically their massing as well as their use of more modern materials and building techniques—large openings, open floor plans, spare and simple detail-

ABOVE: Plank walls evoke the casualness of a beach cabana, and the Cembrit ceiling in this exterior corridor adds clean Scandinavian lines. BELOW: Wall-sized Loewen doors slide aside to admit ocean breezes while drenching the living room and other indoor spaces with light even when closed.

CLOCKWISE FROM LEFT: Extensive use of light natural woods and neutral colors seamlessly unites the interior and exterior designs.

A second-floor outdoor shower, cleverly concealed but still affording unblocked views of Cape Cod Bay, counts among the owners’ favorite spaces in the home. Designed as a year-round home, the beach house especially shines in the warmer months when decks to the front and rear become extensions of the living space in an otherwise compact structure.

ing—paired with vernacular materials like white cedar shingles and red cedar boards.”

Mike Katon, vice president of construction at The Valle Group, the firm that built the home, says that “both the interior and exterior scope of work had very tight architectural tolerances,” but the shed roof allows for maximum height on interior ceilings, and the retractable floor-to-ceiling Loewen doors that comprise two of the four exterior walls facilitate a sense of openness in defiance of a limited, setback-imposed footprint.

Opening the doors allows a seamless transition from the kitchen, living room, and other indoor spaces to the deck, admitting views of sand, sea, and sunrises. Soaking in the vista from the second-floor outdoor shower is one of life’s great pleasures, say the homeowners: “It turns a quick saltwater rinse off into a King of the World moment from the bow of the Titanic.”

The Craftsman Collins Heavener outfits Martha’s Vineyard homes with heirloom-quality furniture. BY ROBERT KIENER

A

s custom furniture maker Collins Heavener chats in the timber-framed Chappaquiddick workshop he and friends built from scratch, he points to one of the soft maple boards that are stacked against a nearby wall. “That one cost me a week’s work,” he says with a quick laugh.

He explains that he had recently used the wood to fashion a trestle base for an elevenfoot-long dining table commissioned by a local client. “After I completed the table trestle I realized, partly because of the maple’s unusual grain direction, it could eventually break apart and fail in say, sixty- or eighty-

some years,” he says. “I want my work to last for centuries. So I tossed it aside and started over with new wood.”

The story is classic Heavener. It reflects both the integrity with which he creates his unique work—elegantly simple Shaker-inspired tables, chairs, dressers, and cabinets—and his fascination with

exploring the technology of wood, a subject he studied at University of Massachusetts Amherst. He takes special delight in working with local materials whenever he can. “For such a small island, Chappy has an astonishing variety of trees,” he says.

Nearly all of Heavener’s furniture, created under the moniker Marshall Farm Wood-Works, stays on Martha’s Vineyard and Chappaquiddick. Some eighty percent of his commissions are from designers and architects with area projects and the rest are from islanders.

CLOCKWISE FROM ABOVE: Inspired by traditional milking stools, Heavener used locally sourced English elm to construct this set of stools. Furniture maker Collins Heavener. This trestle dining table features a solid-slab claro-walnut top and a figured sugar-maple base. Heavener collaborated with Asheville, North Carolina-based Shelter Collective on an eighteen-foot-long dining table made from chestnut resawn from eighteenth-century timbers removed during the restoration of a local home.

“I really enjoy the intimate quality of collaborating with a client during the design phase,” he explains. A favorite recent project was a series of cabinets he made from vertical-grain fir, which had been reclaimed from the home of a local client’s late grandfather. “I take great pleasure in projects that have a sense of history and narrative.”

A Vermont-born transplant to Chappaquiddick, Heavener has combined his love of carpentry with a deep interest in farming. Indeed, in addition to his busy one-man furniture business, he and his wife own and operate an Icelandic sheep farm and a small seasonal (June–August) vegetable farm. “I am a furniture maker first, then a farmer,” says the tall, trim thirty-five-year-old. “And my wife and I are incredibly grateful to work and raise a family on a beautiful New England farm on this gorgeous island.”

Summer Places Beautiful homes with stunning interiors and incomparable water views.

6 BEDROOMS 5 FULL BATHS 1 PARTIAL BATH 4,706 SQ. FT. $15,000,000

VIEW FINDER This Chilmark retreat’s site—at the top of a hill with commanding views of the Atlantic, Menemsha Pond, and Vineyard Sound—is just one of its noteworthy features, says listing agent Madelyn Silvia. Designed by Hutker Architects, the current home replaced an existing house and guesthouse in 2008. The modern structure is striking, with windows that go on for days. Thanks to sleek interiors and water views from most rooms (even the lower-level bedrooms), Silvia calls the overall vibe “sophisticated summer living at its best.” The main level has an open floor plan with an eat-in kitchen, dining room, living room, and a large primary bedroom suite. There are additional bedrooms on the lower level, which is built into the hillside.

A few more of those noteworthy features include a dramatic skylight in the kitchen/ dining area; a stackedstone rotunda that functions as a powder room; pristine pine floors; and a ten-byseventy-foot lap pool that overlooks Menemsha Pond. Silvia’s favorite spot is the living room, with its wood-burning fireplace and water views from every angle. “Even on a dark, rainy day, this room captures the beauty of its surroundings,” she says.

SUMMER CLASSIC It has an old soul, this pristine five-bay three-story Colonial at the end of a quiet street in Shawkemo Hills, a secluded Nantucket neighborhood. Its current owners designed and built the home in 2009. It sits on a shaded two-and-a-half-acre lot that borders conservation land. The house is polished and traditional in a beachy kind of way. Listing agent Bernadette Meyer describes it as an “upside-down house,” with its common rooms (living room, dining room, and kitchen) and primary suite on the second, or main, level. “This

floor has vaulted ceilings and expansive views over the neighboring open land,” says Meyer. Featuring a family room, library, and three en suite bedrooms, the first level opens onto a bluestone patio, pool, pool house, and covered loggia. On the lower level you’ll find a wine cellar, home theater, game room, and another bedroom and bath.

There is a sense of serenity, with no unnecessary adornment, throughout. A sand-sea-and-sky palette takes its cue from the outdoors. It’s a home for all seasons and all kinds of gatherings.

The homeowners describe its rooms as defined and well-proportioned with good flow: “It’s as comfortable with one or two people at home reading as it is when we host a sit-down dinner for twenty-six or a cocktail reception for 100.”

GRAND GESTURE This Osterville estate’s large (3.6-plus acres) lot is captivating even without the resort-like home perched upon it. Rare plantings and specimen trees provide leafy shelter and privacy—and then there’s the 280 feet of private sandy beach. “The site is just about as good as it gets on Cape Cod,” says listing agent Paul Grover. “It overlooks Nantucket Sound, and on a clear day you can see all the way to Martha’s Vineyard. And it’s minutes away from everything Oster-

ville has to offer.” Add a home designed for comfort and living well to this most desirable location, and you pretty much have it all. The home was built in 2012 by its current owners, who spared no expense—from the mahogany floors and custom glass doors to a kitchen backsplash made from Delft tiles. With four bedrooms in the main house and three in the attached guesthouse, there’s room for everyone—plus plenty of creature comforts, from a massage room, gym, and media room to a 5,000-bottle wine cellar. An auto aficionado will appreciate the seven-bay heated garage. The house is outfitted with air-purification and energy-efficient geothermal HVAC systems, while smart-home technology provides control over everything from security to Lutron lighting.

Building a new home in a picture-postcard New England village like Edgartown on Martha’s Vineyard—where the oldest surviving house dates to 1672—requires a profound respect for tradition.

Patrick Ahearn knows this well. He estimates that about seventy percent of his Edgartown projects have been restorations. For the rest, the architect developed a typology he calls “the urban island village compound.”

ABOVE: The main house's fieldstone

chimney is actually a thick stone veneer, while the house is clad in white cedar shakes and clapboard and topped by a red cedar roof.

RIGHT: An entrance at the side of the main house leads to a mudroom with a slate tile floor.

CI22 PatrickAhearnArchitect EdgartownMA_EOK.indd 117

4/27/22 3:23 PM

It has to do primarily with historic styles and massing, where various subordinate structures are anchored by a main section. “It’s implied history,” Ahearn explains. “It looks like the main building was added onto and tells the story, theoretically, of how the house grew over a couple hundred years.” Take the 4,500-square-foot Greek Revival residence he designed for an empty nester couple, where the “original” house commands the show and other volumes are stepped back from it or, in the case of the carriage house, detached and off to the side.

The challenge, of course, lies with making something designed for the past livable for today. The husband’s tastes skew traditional, but his wife loves

contemporary comfort and color. “During the process, we reached consensus,” recalls Ahearn. While the exterior would be classic Vineyard, “the interiors and finishes would be more modern and beachy.” All living spaces also had to be packed with function.

“There’s no one who entertains more or better than this couple, except maybe

Martha Stewart,” explains interior designer Karen Bow. “But they’d even give her a run for her money!” There were also dogs and visiting grown children to consider. Ahearn addressed this by building, he says, “architecture you can use.”

This translates to lots of built-ins and tuckaways that also add cottage flavor.

furniture to ensure easy maintenance and durability.

It fell to Bow to reconcile her clients’ disparate approaches to interiors.

The husband wanted a nautical theme— naturally de rigueur in these parts— while his wife, Bow observes, “is so full of life” that, were it up to her alone, the place would explode with color.

What designer Karen Bow calls a “bunk-less bunkroom” nevertheless sleeps four on toe-to-toe window mattresses and trundles underneath.

Bow created a moodier look by painting the nickel board in a guest bath a deep navy blue. FACING PAGE: The primary bedroom features an ikat-style rug in turquoise. The linens, curtains, and art pull in other marine blues.

“We wanted it to nod to Martha’s Vineyard, but it was important for me to add texture and do things that were new,” Bow says. Nautical decor, for example, calls for brass details. There are obvious applications, such as the large dining table and ship-deck chairs, which boast brass brackets and trestle braces.

Kitchen fixtures and hardware are also all brass. But there are less obvious touches too, namely the lights above the bed in a guest suite. Their positioning and round shapes are subtly reminiscent of portholes.

Shades of blue were a no-brainer for a quaint fishing village. But in a cedarpaneled den, “There’s a little introduction of lavender,” says Bow.

modern round ottoman with a more contemporary paint-splatter pattern.

In the primary bedroom, a turquoise rug sporting a Central Asian ikat design grounds the bed.

From the outside, however, you’d never know. For Edgartown and other similar historic seaside locales, says Ahearn, “This is really like the prototype for a new ‘old’ house. You can’t tell it from the real old houses. It’s a convincing story.”

The home’s waterside showcases Corten steel, Rheinzink, and, of course, an abundance of glass.

Landscape designers Horiuchi Solien removed the site’s overgrown invasive species to make way for native plants, and a stone wall on the street-side parking court was designed to allow passage to wildlife.

“We left feeling like we made the site and property better than it was before,” says architect Douglas Dick.

BELOW: The homeowners fell in love with a slab of Sahara Noir marble in the Cumar showroom in Everett, Massachusetts, years before construction began on the house. “It was a puzzle to figure out how to use it in the right way,” says interior designer Dean Sawyer of the stone that wound up as the great room’s fireplace surround. FACING PAGE: Furniture from Janus et Cie adorns the deck off the great room.

If

this Wellfleet vacation home had an astrological sign, it would certainly be Gemini.

From its street-facing side, it presents as a quiet long-and-narrow twostory structure clad in natural-colored stone and porcelain tile that mimic the sand on the beach below. A deviation from traditional Cape Cod Shinglestyle homes, for sure, but a nod to the experimental modern architectural movement prevalent in the area during

the 1940s, ’50s, and ’60s. Head around to the home’s harbor-facing side, however, and you’re presented with a wall of glass, coated zinc, stone, ipe decking, and Corten steel, already weathering to a rich shade of copper, with some Douglas fir soffits for good measure.

composition,” says builder Ryan Newton. “You could have gone with shingles on the street side, but instead the design team just went for it with the tiles.”

That was at the request of the homeowners, who had already owned a Shingle-style home in the area, says architect Douglas Dick. “Their current

home didn’t provide that seamless connection between indoors and out,” explains Dick, who had previously worked with the clients on their primary residence. “They also wanted a home that would stand up to Wellfleet’s winds and salt spray. Our challenge was to build a durable structure that didn’t

need to be repainted every year. As a result, only the thin steel columns at the entry and decks are painted.”

What appears as a two-level structure from the street is actually three floors, with the lower level sited below grade.

The owners, a couple from Boston with two adult children, two grandchildren, and two dogs (who needed some time

getting used to all the stairs), enter on the middle level, where three bathrooms and all three bedrooms are located.

A family room, storage, and mechanical rooms for the home’s glass elevator can be found one flight down on the cellar level. And on the top floor, the main living space includes a dramatic great room that boasts Loewen lift-and-slide

glass doors that open completely to one of six decks.

“There’s no TV in the room,” points out interior designer Dean Sawyer, “which lets the view drive the furniture plan. We used the client’s existing sectionals to create the perfect area to sit and talk and enjoy the water.”

In the adjacent kitchen and dining

room, the ceiling had to be lowered to ensure the home’s roof-deck complied with Wellfleet’s height restrictions. In the former, high linear windows allow for glimpses of blue sky while simultaneously providing privacy from the street.

“The change in ceiling height gives the two spaces intimacy and enhances the ceiling height in the adjoining areas,” says Dick.

ABOVE, LEFT TO RIGHT: Trees outside a guest bath provide just enough privacy for an indulgent shower-witha-view, though there is an automated privacy screen on the outside for the more modest houseguests. The floating vanity in the primary bath mirrors the floating nightstands and bed in the adjacent bedroom for a subtle midcentury-modern vibe.

Speaking of that must-have roofdeck, the owners access it via a set of stairs that leads to an eight-foot-byeleven-foot motorized sliding-glass skylight with sensors that allow it to close automatically when it rains. “It’s the second time we’ve built one of those systems,” says Newton. “With the area’s height restrictions, there really isn’t an alternative for accessing a roof-deck.”

The entire project took four years from start to finish, but in the end, the clients received the best of both worlds.

“The site informed the design,” says Sawyer. “The home is almost unnoticeable from the front, but the waterside is energetic, unique, and interesting.”

Turning a New Page

An outdated 1920s residence on Nantucket receives an overhaul that complements its stunning waterfront location.

In order to make the most of a tight building envelope, architect Matthew MacEachern rotated the entire house five degrees, enabling him to build two extensions on each side of the original residence. The project also included adding a new pool and terrace between the main house and the pool house.

inding a design team that relishes a challenge is always important—but especially so when the job in question is a historic waterfront renovation and expansion on Nantucket, which boasts a notoriously rigid building code. Lucky for the buyers of this outdated 1920s residence, architect

Matthew MacEachern of the local firm Emeritus had already begun potential renovation plans as one of the listing broker’s selling points. “This was a complicated property,” says MacEachern, siting the home’s historic nature, its proximity to the coastal bank, and the uneven topography. “We had a tight building envelope to work with because of the required zoning setbacks.”

In order to make the most of the site, MacEachern rotated the entire home five degrees, “better

capturing the water views and pulling the house a bit farther from the coastal bank,” he says. As a result, MacEachern was able to add square footage to either side of the original structure, as well as build a 400-square-foot guesthouse. To maximize the living space even further, the architect devised a plan to relocate the garage—which had been integrated into the original structure—to underneath the guesthouse, where it wouldn’t count toward the allowable ground cover and could be connected to

and interior designer Elizabeth Dunne Marcoulier collaborated on the interior floor plan, creating an airy space that allows for expansive views of the coastline and harbor. A new floating staircase constructed of wood and glass is positioned in a nook off the living area. The space also features a sectional and console from B&B Italia, a custom cocktail table, and a window bench from Minotti.

“ THE CLIENTS WANTED THIS HOUSE TO BE MORE CONTEMPORARY THAN TYPICAL NANTUCKET.” —Architect and designer Elizabeth Dunne Marcoulier the basement and main house. Now, one can walk from the guesthouse to the 9,000-square-foot, eight-bedroom main house by way of a tunnel under the new pool area.

Masquerading as much new construction as possible was critical to the project’s success.

“The Historic District Commission was a major factor,” explains MacEachern. “The residence is visible from the harbor, so we were required to maintain the architectural characteristics of both the front and rear facades. Our solution was to flank the central historic structure with two additions, making it feel like those pieces could have been added over time.”

With planning and structural approvals out of the way, attention turned to the interiors, led by architect and designer Elizabeth Dunne Marcoulier. She and MacEachern collaborated on the floor plan, opening it up as much as possible to capitalize on the views. “This house needed to be all about the water, the amazing sunsets, and indoor/outdoor living,” says Dunne Marcoulier, who had worked on the family’s primary residence in Boston many years ago while at Dell Mitchell Architects but never actually met the couple.

Thanks to a mutual friend who recommended Dunne Marcoulier to the couple, the three were given a second chance to connect, and they hit it off right away. “The clients wanted this house to be more contemporary than typical Nantucket, which surprised me because my first impression, based on their main residence, was that they were very traditional,” says Dunne Marcoulier.

“I soon realized this wasn’t the case, and now we’re actually redoing their primary residence to better reflect their fresh thinking.”

To encourage an unfussy, relaxed atmosphere,

Dunne Marcoulier landed on a clean palette of mostly white, warmed up by textural fabrics, stone, shiplap, and oak accents. A mix of custom and contemporary furnishings complements the minimalist interior architecture. “There’s a bit of that California aesthetic, as well as European,” says Dunne Marcoulier. “It relates to Nantucket, but you feel like you could be on a yacht in Europe.”

One of the main mandates for the project was indoor/ outdoor living, so a substantial covered porch with plenty of seating was a must. A pair of Minotti sectionals form two separate sitting areas perfect for taking in the views.

Good Neighbors A Martha’s Vineyard home takes a gentle approach to honoring the property’s past and ensuring its future.

t was no easy feat to convince the Martha’s Vineyard Commission that a new house would be an improvement over the one that currently occupied the Aquinnah hillside. The wise people of the tiny town at the Vineyard’s western edge place a premium on keeping their piece of the island from the ravages of overdevelopment, and it took months, recalls Philip Regan, a principal at Hutker

164

CI22_HutkerArchitects-MV_EOK.indd 164

Architects, to get approval for the plan he and project architect Tom Shockey proposed.

“This property is very visible,” he explains. “We took photos from various vantage points and compared it to existing photos to show the commission that the new house would stand out less than the structure that was already there, which had more height and a lot of white paint.”

The miniature compound consists of the flat-roofed garage, the main house to the right, and a separate structure to the left that holds the guest bedrooms. Architects Philip Regan and Tom Shockey designed the curved-roof buildings to suggest the longhouses that might have been built by Martha’s Vineyard’s original occupants, the Wampanoags.

Weathered-wood siding and the zinc-coated copper roofing help the home feel as though it has stood here for generations.

“ We wanted to HONOR THE LAND,” the husband says. “We DIDN’T WANT a property that was INTRUSIVE to the EYE.”

ABOVE: The great room’s wall of windows keeps the focus on the water views. A curvy sectional sofa

The homeowner was closely involved in choosing the stones and their placement for the fireplace mantel. FACING PAGE: Pebble Pendants from Ochre, hung at varying heights, shine above the Asher Israelow custom table and Kelly Wearstler chairs in the stylish dining room.

The clients, who owned a nearby property and had long coveted this spot, were equally determined that their new home not mar the land’s natural beauty or disrespect its history as home to the Wampanoag people who had lived here for some 10,000 years before Europeans came long. “We wanted to honor the land,” the husband says. “We didn’t want a property that was intrusive to the eye.”

Scale, proportion, and sustainabil-

ity were top of everyone’s mind, says Shockey. “The property has 270-degree views of rolling hills, water, woodland, and the lighthouse,” he says, referring to the iconic Gay Head Light. “Our clients wanted to let the natural landscape dominate.”

The scheme that finally won over the commission consists of a series of low-profile buildings with contemporary silhouettes but with curved rooflines

“ It’s a very SITE-RESPONSIVE APPROACH, much like the traditional camps. The SPACE BETWEEN buildings becomes INTERACTIVE.” —Architect Philip Regan

RIGHT: The emphasis on the outdoors continues in the kitchen, where walls of sleek white cabinetry are a quiet counterpoint to the color-filled gardens.

that suggest the longhouses often built by native peoples.

This is the owners’ primary residence, so they wanted a house that was small enough to feel cozy through the long Vineyard winters but spacious enough to welcome their adult children and the grandchildren the couple hope will come along one day. The architects’ clever scheme is a compound with a main house and a detached three-bedroom guest quarters. “It’s a very site-responsive approach, much like the traditional camps,” Regan says. “The space between buildings becomes interactive.”

CI22_HutkerArchitects-MV_EOK.indd 168

4/27/22 3:47 PM

Zinc-coated copper roofs and weathered-wood siding help the buildings nestle unobtrusively into the site, an effect furthered by Horiuchi Solien’s restrained landscape design that emphasizes low plantings of native materials to anchor and soften the buildings.

From the flat-roofed garage, a boardwalk leads to a breezeway-like entrance with glass doors at either end for a view

through to the water. “Phil and Tom created this experience where you’re really in the landscape,” the wife says.

“I love pulling up to the house and seeing the ocean through the windows.”

A right turn from here leads to the main house, a modest 2,800 square feet or so that feels much more spacious thanks to its open floor plan and floor-toceiling windows in all the public areas.

Working with interior designers Mika Durrell (who has since left the Hutker firm) and Stacey Sarber, the couple outfitted the house with contemporary furnishings in a neutral palette, keeping the focus on the views outside and their treasured collection of contemporary art within.

Besides the commission and the homeowners, Regan and Shockey had to keep the neighbors happy, too. When Colin Whyte and his crew at Martha’s Vineyard Construction Company were building the house, Regan recalls, they wrapped it in orange weather shield.

“For a bit, it stood out like a pumpkin on a hillside, and people were upset,” he says with a chuckle. “Now that it’s complete, you almost don’t know it’s there.”

And that’s just the way the happy homeowners like it.
