About Old Yacht Club Xususiy uy

Ko'rfaz qirg'og'ida joylashgan tashlab ketilgan Yaxta Klubi yillar davomida xarobada turgan holda Meyn shtatining shafqatsiz qirg'oq iqlimiga guvoh bo'ldi. 1919-yilda qurilgan bino, Klub 1946-yilda ko'chib ketganidan keyin bir qator o'zgarishlarga dosh berdi. Uning tarixiy xotirasini tiklash va 20-asr boshidagi inshootni modernizatsiya qilish uchun to'g'ri yondashuv va sadoqat talab qilindi.

Unique Properties: An abandoned Yacht Club, poised at the edge of the bay, sat derelict for years, all while bearing witness to the relentless coastal climate of Maine. Built in 1919, it endured a series of interventions after the Club relocated in 1946. It would require the right temperament and commitment to restore its historical memory while modernizing the early 20th-century structure.
Dimensions & Packaging: The original footprint (9.75 m x 13.7 m) was maintained as was the original height. The original stone was repointed and reused on site along with the original framing and wall finish from the Club Room.
Tags: Renovation, Rehabilitation, Adaptive Reuse, Minimalism, Light
Production Technology: Renovation often calls to mind the thought problem of Theseus’ ship. How does one renovate a historic structure and adapt it to a new use without obfuscating past and present? The solution in this case involved developing an architectural language that relates to the old while clearly of the present.
Research: The original structure was studied and fully documented. We analyzed the structural systems to determine the best way to maintain as much of the original historic fabric as possible. In the end, the foundation required significant repair and a new structural system was erected so that this project can endure long into the future.
Inspiration: Two large moves helped transform the Yacht Club into a residence while paying homage to its past. In both instances old and new are distinct. The replacement of a corner of the Club Room with large sliding glass panels coupled with the addition of two glass dormers transformed the otherwise lightless building into a two-way receptacle for light. While admitting sunlight deep into the house throughout the day, at night it is a luminous beacon on the coast, a reminder of memory restored.
Project Duration: The project started design in 2018 and construction started in the spring of 2020 and was completed in the summer of 2023.
Operation Flow: Single-family residence.
