This project, located in the coastal neighborhood of Brant Rock in Marshfield, Massachusetts, replaced an existing home that no longer fit the needs of the site or the family. We organized the new structure perpendicular to the shoreline to take full advantage of natural light, ocean views, and prevailing breezes while working within the constraints of a narrow coastal lot and local zoning.
The exterior draws from familiar New England coastal vernacular—cedar shingles, pitched rooflines, and white trim—but with refinements in proportion and detailing that give the home a clean, contemporary profile. A wrap-around porch creates a strong connection to the street and shoreline, offering generous outdoor living space that can be used throughout the seasons.
