    Alan Maskin

The home of Alan Maskin, this project reflects Maskin’s longstanding interest in the various uses of history. The project is an 1,100-square-foot renovation and building addition to a 1938 beach cabin overlooking Agate Pass on Washington State’s Olympic Peninsula, including interior design and landscape design. Throughout, modern design interventions delineate the house’s two different eras: the 1930s and today.

Maskin designed several custom furniture pieces and casework elements throughout the home. Many incorporate glulam engineered plywood as the main material, including a daybed in the living room, an armoire, and a bed with built-in storage underneath.

Agate Pass Cabin features works by Scott Fife, Sutton/Beres/Culler, Leiv Fagereng, Karen Rudd, Rebecca (Raven) Lucan, Chris Crites, David Eisenhour, Mary Larson and Klara Glosova amongst others.
