clean, minimal, and sincere. The second floor mass set within a frame cantilevers on two plinths containing private spaces. Pocket doors open the public spaces to the gardens
GEORGIAN RIVER ESTATE
Daniel Island, Charleston, SC
6,900 sq ft, 4 bedrooms plus 2 br guest house
The most coveted parcel of land on the island required a residence of similar pedigree.
A fictional historical narrative organizes the structures on the site. A formal Georgian manor house is the focal point, while a secondary kitchen house dependency and coordinating carriage house appear to have been added at a later date. Subtle architectural detailing supports the narrative and differentiates the structures. A modern glazed steel clad hyphen bridges between the manor house and kitchen house as evidence of a exquisite modern renovation.
The carriage house is the public face greeting the street and features guest quarters above and a garden potting conservatory. An outbuilding flanks the raised formal garden and is modeled on a dovecote.

The outbuilding is modeled on a dovecote while the main house, upon arrival at the motor court is retrained but richly detailed. The architecture is set within a verdant garden. Formal plantings surround the historical face of the property and transition to informal natural landscape at the perimeter.
A ficticious historical narrative provides an organizational structure for the estate. The Georgian main house was succeeded by a rear kitchen house dependency and followed by a carriage house and outbuilding. Subtle architectural clues illustrate variations in time period and architectural detailing
LOW COUNTRY ECLECTIC
Captains Island, Charleston SC
4,800 sq ft 5 bedrooms
Located on a pristine lot with expansive view of the marsh and river, this waterfront residence embraces traditional low country coastal tectonics in a modern hand.
In the manner of an inhabited ruin, traditionally detailed brick masonry masses shelter and protect the frame residence on its public facades. Louvered scrim covers expanses of glass and provide further privacy. The private waterfront facade opens up with expansive glazing surrounding an elevated courtyard terrace and pool.
The primary mass of the home is flanked by secondary dependency wings that reference historic rural dogtrot structures.
