Demolition

The original house site was plagued with a dilapidated doublewide trailer home. The awkward positioning of the trailer home and its foundation deprived the inhabitants of sunshine and prohibited them from enjoying the beautiful surroundings. The positioning also prevented the building to benefit from solar gain, an important natural heat source during the long Maine winters. The clients, who are also my parents, removed the trailer home, but I suggested that the well-constructed concrete fountain remain.
