Punkinville House is a contemporary residence by bruce norelius studio, designed for clients transitioning from a 19th-century cape to a markedly different way of living. Set on a striking site and shaped by the owners’ wish for a modern home, the project emphasizes a deliberate shift in architectural character. The design maintains a restrained appearance, reflecting both the region’s vernacular and the clients’ intent for a minimal, modern dwelling. The exterior is clad in local white cedar shingles, referencing traditional New England construction while supporting durability and climate responsiveness. The house employs clean lines and a sober material palette, favoring simplicity over ornamentation. The composition and siting address local climatic conditions, balancing contemporary aspirations with practical responses to the environment.
