Description: Site plan, floor plans, elevations, sections, details, mechanical Roc's Comments: This project was an addition on a garage! The Ingles found that they had zoning permission to add a substantial addition to their garage. They wanted a sturdy home that would house their grown children and guests. We worked hard to create an attractive structure that looked like it had always been there. I think we succeeded. The living room in this house is really pleasant. John Gordon was the excellent project manager on this one and the building looks it. [show more]
Description: Floor plans, elevations, sketches Roc's Comments: I love Maude March. When she and John asked me to design their home I was delighted to do it. Their family and John's legal career were young and it was difficult to satisfy all of John's requirements. I don't think I succeeded as, once it was done, I never heard from John again. I still love Maude March.
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]
