Description: Sketches, elevations, floor plans Roc's Comments: I started the program in Environmental Design at College of the Atlantic in 1974. We got a good sized grant for the Fund for Post Secondary Education to develop our curriculum. Part of the program was for the advanced students to do pro bono work in the community. The greenhouse was a student designed project and the site analysis done for a new Information building at the head of the island was another. Keith Miller the then superintendent paid the our class' token fee with a bag of silver dollars. We bought a radio. I think Tripp Royce, Wells Bacon, Patty Dodd, Megan and Carole Mananan were some of the students involved with these projects. [show more]

Description: south elevation, interior Roc's Comments: Neva and Walter Kaiser asked me to design a kitchen renovation for their home "Stonecrop" on Bracy Cove. Neva is a brilliant woman but does not see three dimensional spaces in her mind. We would mock up the various elements of this project in cardboard and duct tape and scrap lumber and she came to life and, I think we made a charming and efficient kitchen space for them. Bob Patterson, a trustee at College of the Atlantic, introduced us and he designed the beautiful garden in front of the new bay window. [show more]
