Year
The Wink House, originally built in the early 1990s, underwent a major renovation in 2022. The 2000 SF house, inspired by lighthouse design, features a four-story tower for sweeping views. The renovation included re-imaging and re-skinning the entire envelope with new windows, siding, roof, and trim.
Lighthouse-Inspired Renovation
The renovation process focused on preserving the original lighthouse-inspired design while updating the exterior envelope. The house’s tower element was enhanced to maintain its unobstructed views above the treetops, and the project also explored innovative features like planted roofs, all while addressing the unique challenges of working in an ‘island’ factory setting.
The Results
The 2022 renovation of the Wink House successfully modernized the exterior while preserving its distinctive lighthouse-inspired design. The updated envelope, including new windows, siding, and roofing, ensures the home’s durability and aesthetic appeal, while the four-story tower continues to offer stunning views with minimal impact on the surrounding landscape.
