215 Lake Ave - Lake House on Quinsigamond

Set on the shore of Lake Quinsigamond, this new home is organized to stay private toward the street and open fully toward the water. Its form was shaped by two forces: the owners' vision for a modern house, and the parameters we set with the city's Conservation Department to protect the waterfront.

The path was not easy. Neighbors opposed a modern design on the site, and the permitting process with the city tested every decision.
