Brown- Nebel Residence

Severna Park, Maryland

 

Sited on a gentle knoll overlooking Round Bay on the Severn River near Annapolis, Maryland, this project involved additions and the complete remodeling of a small, outmoded, 1930’s “Cape Cod Colonial” house. Inspired by Edwin Lutyen’s Tigbourne Court and Homewood, the triple-gable composition provides a pleasant architectural character and human scale on approach.  A covered loggia, created by recessing gently curved floor-to-ceiling windows under the gables, floods the principal spaces with soft natural light and panoramic water views while providing solar shading of the south-facing glass.
