Oyster Pond House is a residential architecture and interior design project comprising the preservation of an original 19th century residence married with a two-story contemporary addition. The residence, overlooking Oyster Pond in Chatham, transforms a historic farmhouse into a gathering place for modern living that takes full advantage of its elevated site, expanding and reorganizing interior and exterior living areas to maximize views to the ocean while drawing inspiration from elemental forms and the surrounding vernacular. Clean, fresh, and durable interiors balance traditional coastal elements, utilizing a palette inspired by regional shells with a concept of organic shapes and humble materials.
