This remote island off the coast of Maine is inhabited by a small community of 75 individuals, mostly lobster fisherman. The local fishermen collect their buoys from the ocean, each marked with a unique sequence of colors, and hang them on the side of their houses when they are not being used. This creates a colorful patchwork covering the sides of most of the island’s traditional saltbox homes. This became the story for the architecture; the design emerged from a concept that is derived from a truly site‐specific island typology. The house is also designed to be self-sustaining; active and passive solar strategies are used throughout.
