Modern Colonial Project


Architectural Possibilties in a Modern Cape Video

Dick Wills takes Bob on a tour of the interior of his Cape-style home. The house is much larger than Bob expected with a library, master suite, a large family country kitchen, utility space and mud room, and then two bedrooms each with their own baths upstairs. Wills took advantage of of the slope of the Cape roof to open up the interior and give it some volume. The great room is 28 by 34 with a high ceiling and a balcony looking down into the room.
