south elevation, interior Roc's Comments: Neva and Walter Kaiser asked me to design a kitchen renovation for their home "Stonecrop" on Bracy Cove. Neva is a brilliant woman but does not see three dimensional spaces in her mind. We would mock up the various elements of this project in cardboard and duct tape and scrap lumber and she came to life and, I think we made a charming and efficient kitchen space for them. Bob Patterson, a trustee at College of the Atlantic, introduced us and he designed the beautiful garden in front of the new bay window.

proposed relocation and addition Roc's Comments: The Fox Family needed more vacation space for their growing families. Mary Alice had died and Sam at 90+ needed a good project to sink his teeth into. This house was really done for the adult children Emily Conant, Sam Fox Jr., Edward?, and their families. Turned out well.
