Flavin ArchitectsThis remodel of a mid century gem is located in the town of Lincoln, MA a hot bed of modernist homes inspired by Gropius’ own house built nearby in the 1940’s. By the time the house was built, modernism had evolved from the Gropius era, to incorporate the rural vibe of Lincoln with spectacular exposed wooden beams and deep overhangs.
The design rejects the traditional New England house with its enclosing wall and inward posture. The low pitched roofs, open floor plan, and large windows openings connect the house to nature to make the most of its rural setting.

Morehouse MacDonald & Associates, Inc. ArchitectsMorehouse MacDonald and Associates worked with landscape architect Gregory Lombardi and interior designer James Radin to create this contemporary take on the Arts and Craft style for a discerning Boston client. New Hampshire granite was selected to establish a strong base or plinth for the house. Careful use of stucco, corbeled overhangs, and layered roof lines generate a sturdy yet elegant statement.
