Located in a beach-side community that is noted for it's quiet streets, cozy homes and traditional aesthetic, this residence is Adam Jordan Architecture designed for a young family that wished to respect the neighborhood character while embracing the existing nature on the property. To ground the new design within the local architectural language, traditional gabled forms were combined with simple yet unique materials.  

Stone and wood siding are commonplace for the area but are elevated through the material selection, finish and implementation. By utilizing an L-shape configuration and varying the height of the upper levels, the new home fits comfortably into the scale of it's context.  This configuration also allows for the preservation of an existing, mature maple tree creating a picturesque backdrop within the landscape.

Adam Jordan Studio's bold ideas, rooted in tradition and context, allow it to create warm and inviting Spaces. It considers himself a creative person throughout his life ,and he is always just preferred to create things as well as painting and sketching. He alludes to the pared-back utility of the greats that inspire him, namely French modernists Charlotte Perriand and Jean Prouvé. His designs revel in hard edges and perpendicular lines, there's a warmth to them.
