Nantucket is an island that's 48 kilometres off the coast of Cape Cod, Massachusetts, which is the location of the Squam Residence by J. Brown Builders that boasts a building method that pays homage to historical practices. Nantucket Island has strict building codes that look to keep a certain aesthetic consistent with all new developments that pop up on the small American island.
Keeping in line with the building codes put forth on Nantucket Island, the Squam Residence by J. Brown Builders features a pitched roof and unpainted shingles on all the exterior walls. The interior is luxuriously appointed in such a manner that makes you forget that there's nothing for miles around; it's the family's choice to stay inside with the furnishings or head outside to the sprawling natural surroundings.
