Unbuilt Elevations, floor plans Roc's favorite design he ever did. Roc's Comments: This is a sad story. Met with the McPhersons and designed this elegant and efficient home for them on a very bad piece of property on the side of the hill in Seal Harbor. They had sewer and water lines running over the property and there was a drainage swale that cut it in half. I organized all the town utility infrastructure and used the intermittent stream as a land feature and defining form in the design. I really love this little solution and think the design is one of the best I have done. Unfortunately the McLeans hired Bill Shaw a local builder who took my COA class in Architectural Design in the past. Bill told them my drawings were not what he wanted to build and they threw them out and Bill built what he wanted to.

Floor plans, sections, elevation Roc's Comments: This was my first job. It was for Neva Goodwin who has remained a good friend ever since. The work began back in the 70's and was first a kitchen renovation with bay window addition. Bob Patterson who suggested me to Neva was cajoled into designing the beautiful garden in front. Neva and I worked well together and she truly enjoyed the new space when it was completed. Edgar Walls did the construction and Barb Sassaman helped with the drawings. We went on to do about 5 or six additional tasks for Neva there including moving and renovating the Jordan house across the road.
