Beach Modernism With A Contemporary Twist
Flashback…1960s Seaside Park, NJ. You and your family are walking down your street toward the ocean, and eventually making your way towards the Seaside Heights Boardwalk. The neighborhood has a great deal of architectural integrity. Each house has its own story. From the articulated wooden boxes to the cedar shake beach bungalows, each iteration represents a kind of every man modernism that is accessible to people with middle class incomes.These small homes seem to have the perfect balance of house to landscape. Greeted by the ocean air at the end of the street, you walk along the beach and eventually make your way to the Boardwalk to enjoy the night with your family.
