Welcome to our newsletter. Once a month we will update you with news about David Matero Architecture and our community. We welcome your comments, questions and feedback.
Kennebec Terrace
Vertical board siding has begun to be installed at the Kennebec Terrace in Bath. It has been fully insulated and interior finishes are beginning to be installed as well. Double thick walls, triple-glazed windows oriented to the view, and tight air-sealing will create a very comfortable and quiet home. Construction by Chartier Building & Remodeling.
Rose Stone Bridge
The Rose Stone bridge was finished ahead of schedule by CPM Constructors. Designed to handle emergency vehicles, it was also raised two feet above the existing bridge to keep it further above water and decrease the road grade. Next step is for the addition/renovation of the office building by Frohmiller Construction.
On the Drawing Board
We recently received planning board approval for a 2,300 sf, modern and energy efficient home on a sloping site in Georgetown. We are going to call this project Decked Out because of the multitude of outdoor spaces to enjoy our wonderful, if short, Maine summers. Construction by Chartier Building & Remodeling.
Puerto Rico
David and I joined our friends for a quick get-away to Puerto Rico last month. We spent most of the time in Old San Juan walking 500 year old streets and sampling they city's food and drink. We might have also spent some time at the pool, too. Of course, the first thing David did was buy a Panama hat, so I got one too.
Views from the Jobsite
We love framing views and this one is from Cold Spring Farm in Phippsburg. The new addition will be an energy efficient year-round residence connected to a 1774 brick Georgian style "summer" house. The complicated roof lines were just completed and framed. Construction by Chartier Building and Remodeling.
Centre Street Arts Gallery
Jillian Herrigel can describe her work in two words, "imaginative realism." Her work reflects an intuitive reaction to what she sees, and the inspiration can come from the mundane to the beautiful and the viewer will often have their own interpretation or reaction to the results. More of her work can be found at Centre Street Arts Gallery, 11 Centre Street in Bath.
Castillo San Felipe del Morro, Old San Juan
