Fenwick Beach House

This beachside addition is designed to maximize light and views.  Set back several houses from the ocean, this residence stretches both horizontally and vertically to catch glimpses of the water and sky.

A splayed stair provides views down the street during the ascent past a first floor apartment and a second floor of bedrooms to the main living spaces above.

A solid bar of service spaces blocks the adjacent house and highway to the West creating a backdrop for the open spaces and terraces of the upper levels.  A shed roof floats above, shading the glass enclosures below and framing views of the sky.
