Kligerman Architecture & Design

Designed for a young family on Nantucket, this beach house draws from the island’s shingle style traditions while creating a more relaxed and contemporary way of living by the water. Gardens, porches, and paths connect the house to the surrounding landscape, with views unfolding gradually toward the ocean.

Inside and out, the materials were chosen to feel familiar and enduring, weathered shingles, painted wood, soft textiles, and a palette shaped by sand, sky, and sea. The result is a house designed less around formality and more around the rhythms of summer living, and the wildlife that passes through it.
