| 1235 | Heyward/Crothers House and Guest House |
|
| Plot plan, elevations, floor plans, sketches, foundation plan, roof framing plan, sections, electrical and lighting plan, plumbing fixtures Roc's Comments: Probably one of the best projects. Done for Lisa Heyward and Jock Crothers. Lisa's father was an architect and she knew exactly what she wanted and where. our job was to make it attractive and buildable. I think it worked. this house was built about 4 feet in front of a deteriorated home they first lived in. Once completed they tore the home down and built a small guest house in its place. The contractor foreman on this project was very divisive and made the construction phase difficult but we persevered and it came out well and very close to the budget. I think Lisa was disappointed in the debates we had with the contractors on the job trying to get them to keep to their original commitments. I wish I knew how to make the process less difficult for the client when this happens. Todd Stanley was an excellent help on this project and the guest house is really mostly his doing. He was a great member of our team. |

| 1241 | House at Irish Point for Steven Rockefeller |
|
| Bridge sketch, sketches, plot plan, floor plans, elevations, mechanical Roc's Comments: Steven Rockefeller and his wife, Dorie, asked me to design the Gilley Museum (see 118). We had a great time working together on that building and in 1990 (when we were contemplating moving back to MDI from Philadelphia) I received a letter asking if I would design him a new home on Swans Island. Steven had remarried Barbara Bellows and they wanted a summer home built on the land that Steven had simply camped on and cleared the lower branches of the spruce trees to maintain the meadow, encourage the breezes and discourage the mosquitoes. When I asked Steven and Barbara what they were looking for in a summer house Barbara said in her charming southern accent " Roc, we like a summer house with dogs and kids and screen doors that slam." I knew exactly what she meant and prepared a series of pencil sketches that zeroed in on a really nice white clapboard farmhouse indicative of the Greek and Gothic revival structures found all over Swans and the western side of Mt Desert Island. We went thru very few iterations before arriving at the final design. The house purposely has 4 different exterior elevations. The entry or East elevation is the regional revival style facade, the South elevation has a more "craftsman/sea captains" appearance. The West elevation is meant to be the " summer house cottage" side when viewed from the water. And the North side is our current, funky Downeast side. There is a wonderful big bathtub that aligns with a big southern window looking out over the pink sand beach. This place and the clients are all a very happy memory. |

| 1225 | Fox Family Residence |

| basement/foundation plan, details and specifications, floor plans, elevations, sections, details, schedules Roc's Comments: Sam and Mary Alice Fox were two retired doctors. They had quite an amazing history and decided to retire to his family's vacation site on the Southern end of Long Pond. Wonderful site and truly inspiring people. We went thru an orderly and thorough design and construction process and I enjoyed every moment of it and was honored to be their friend here on MDI after that. We always had some little project to solve together, but I think it was just an excuse to hang out. Their family were all very tall, thus the lofty feeling inside. Mary Alice had severe arthritis and we installed a good sized hot tub off of their master bathroom. No moisture problems due to serious research on our part. If this house pleases the viewer, they are getting just a small sense of how wonderful these two were. |
