Downeast Coastal Residence
The planting palette used for areas around the residence literally “lift” to the roof. This green roof reinforces the flow of nature over and around the buildings. The organic, ephemeral quality of the plants provides a contrast to the building’s strong form and enduring materials holding both in an interesting tension.
