Lily Pond House
-
1Located on a granite knob 30' above a lily pond the house overlooks the Atlantic Ocean to the south. It is an optimal orientation that combines water views with a positive solar aspect. The house replaced an existing structure lived in by the current owners for the past 25 years. They were committed to building a low impact house which relies less on fossil fuel and produces most of it's own power via a 7kw solar array.
The three main cubic volumes are clad in white cedar boards and zinc panels which will all weather to a silver gray further connecting the building to the site of granite ledges and native ground cover, shrubs and trees. The construction techniques include a high performance building envelop and triple glazed windows. The plan is very compact and organized around a series of split-levels. This allows the house to both hug the ledge and provide a series of high outlooks while reducing the overall height and mass of the house. A series of flat roofs provides an upper terrace and platforms for the solar PV panel system. The cantilevered sunscreens extend the boundaries of the building envelop and provide a branch like quality to the facade.
The contemplative mood of the site is reflected in the limited palette of materials on the inside. Exposed concrete floors, unpainted plaster walls, natural wood and blacked steel all contribute to the serenity of the house. Natural light suffuses every room. The main living spaces have multiple orientations that celebrates the changing light during the course of the day.

Island House
-
1Located on an island near the mouth of the Kennebec River, the house faces south with views of the Atkins Bay, Fort Popham and the ocean. The main house and guest house are connected by a screen porch which frames initial views of the water. The flat roof acts as a water collector, and a platform for solar electric panels mounted on angled frames. The top roof deck is also used as a terrace and green roof. All materials were brought by water and landed on the beach below .The steel frame sits directly on feldspar ledge. A bridge at the second floor connects to the hill that rises behind the house. The house is approached from the riverside and the land. The interior is a combination exposed fir beams and spruce decking at the ceiling and wood panels on the walls. The exterior is clad in cedar boards and copper.

Chamberlain House
A guest house and small utility building, designed in a similar vocabulary, are arranged along the narrow site on a north and south axis.
All materials were selected for longevity and their ability to weather over time- the cladding is a combination of eastern white cedar and zinc coated copper.
The house received a LEED Platinum rating and with a combination of roof mounted and off site solar panels the house is net zero energy.
