The home of principal/owner Alan Maskin, this project reflects his longstanding interest in the various uses of history. Throughout this 1,100‑square‑foot renovation and addition to a 1938 beach cabin, including interior design and landscape design, modern design interventions delineate the house’s two different eras: the 1930s and today.
