“Pointer Perch” is sited high on a rocky hill overlooking the Atlantic. The mantra for the design was to build just what was needed for a couple and their dog, and nothing more. The owners desired a low maintenance retreat with just a few generously sized rooms positioned to capture the surrounding views. The house’s form was generated by a desire to climb as high as possible to capture the panoramic ocean views, with the living spaces placed at the top of the tower. The architectural style is influenced by the island’s eclectic shingled cottages interpreted in a dynamic contemporary form.
