2012 exhibit text: Skyview Cottage for Lawrence Lewis Northeast Harbor, ME, 1900-02 Pencil on tracing paper The Gerrish Collection, Northeast Harbor Library These studies show an interest by Savage in manipulating the typical Shingle style elements of dormers, turrets, and porches. He merges these forms in this design to develop a simple, pleasing and romantic shingled mass. This detail of Skyview shows Savage's overlay of structural wood framing to describe his concept to a contractor. Most likely he worked out framing detail with the contractor, who no doubt brought his experience to what was a collaborative exchange. |
