Decatur Island Cabin
A tiny old cabin was the start of this architecture project. It is located in an historic collection of northwest dwellings on Decatur Island in the San Juans. A local covenant governs any new construction so as to maintain the character of the community: style, massing, color, window style etc.
In adding a sizeable addition to "Margarets Cabin", we wanted to be sensitive to respect the original structure yet create a unified entity that meshed old with new in a sensible manner. The finished home now has a large eat-in kitchen in the old cabin connecting to a living area in the new; with three bedrooms upstairs in the addition connecting to a loft over the kitchen.The interior character is rustic and spare - befitting the carefree island summer home that it is.
