On the Boards: On the Rocks

Uniquely sited on the lake’s edge, this shoreland-zone-regulated camp maintains the governed footprint while transforming the language of the structure into a collection of volumes, reflecting the granite boulders that pepper the waterfront site. Breaking the form of the main volume creates a sleeping loft with acoustic separation and views out to the water while simultaneously adapting to a site-appropriate scale. On the upper portion of the site, a two-bedroom bunkhouse provides additional accommodations for larger family gatherings. In the true spirit of a Maine Camp, the design supports access and connection to the naturally beautiful surroundings. We’re enjoying the process on this one, and look forward to seeing it come to life!
