Schematics, sketches Roc's comments: The building committee of the Causeway Club asked us to help them with a master plan. Was some internal conflicts on the committee and a rather crabby man took over driving others away and they did very little of this excellent plan. John Gordon was the project manager and did some of the renderings. He had a great hand.

Floor plans, lighting plans, elevations, sketches, bed and cabinet details Includes copies of the original drawings by Robert W Patterson in 1966 for Mrs. Philip Wallis. Roc's comments: Jim Wallace asked me to draw the existing plans of his mother's house so that he might sell it. When he offered to pay I said no but when pressed I said my fee would be a box of cigars. Jim called me from the humidor at Dunhills in NYC. When I told him the brand I preferred he said "Holy Shit, I should have paid your fee!" Barbara Danielson bought the house and hired Barb Sassaman and me to renovate it. We enjoyed working for this very creative woman and she became a friend of Sass and mine from then on.

Sketches, floor plans, elevations Roc Comments: An addition for daughter of Josephine Ingle who we did a guest house for years earlier. Nice couple who did a very respectful expansion on this house that we originally designed for Ira Levy and Stan Gurell.

Renovation suggestions and computer generated perspectives of various suggestions, schedules, sections, framing plans, floor plans, mechanical, plumbing, electrical Roc's Comments: The Habermanns have an extensive collection of Soderholtz garden urns and wanted a room and outdoor garden area in which to display them. they also wanted to add a master bedroom suite to the north side of their lovely old shingle styled home on Somes Sound. I think we did a good job of giving them the updated functions they requested and respecting the existing structure. They were very pleasant people to work with. Avik Eloyan helped with the drawings and computer work.

Site map, floor plans, elevations, sections, details, plumbing, electrical, mechanical Roc's Comments: David and Bunky Hopkins shared the old family house "Little Orchard " with David's brother Porter. Behind the charming old cape of many additions was a small barn. The original barn facade facing the street was simple and beautiful. David wanted us to tear it down and build a guest house with three bedrooms and baths and a full kitchen/dining living room. We did this and reproduced the lines of the original street facade. This is a very clever little house and it folds up and tucks away in the winter. Todd Stanley and Roland Sosa helped with this project.

Site plan, floor plans, elevations, sections, details, mechanical Roc's Comments: This project was an addition on a garage! The Ingles found that they had zoning permission to add a substantial addition to their garage. They wanted a sturdy home that would house their grown children and guests. We worked hard to create an attractive structure that looked like it had always been there. I think we succeeded. The living room in this house is really pleasant. John Gordon was the excellent project manager on this one and the building looks it.

Floor plans, elevations, sketches Roc's Comments: I love Maude March. When she and John asked me to design their home I was delighted to do it. Their family and John's legal career were young and it was difficult to satisfy all of John's requirements. I don't think I succeeded as, once it was done, I never heard from John again. I still love Maude March.
