In Progress


The Sandbar House
Set along the Orleans waterfront, this in-progress custom home is designed to embrace the surrounding coastal landscape through clean architectural forms, natural cedar materials, and expansive water-facing living spaces. The residence combines traditional Cape-inspired massing with refined contemporary detailing, creating a warm and modern retreat carefully positioned to capture light, privacy, and sweeping inlet views.
Beyond the waterfront setting, the photos show how this Orleans home is organized. From above, a shingled house and a separate garage sit close to wide water and marsh.
Inside, exposed timber trusses rise over an open living room with a gas fireplace, while tall windows frame views of trees and water.
Other details visible in the photos:
• A kitchen with a long white island, wood-and-rattan stools and pendant lights
• Open wood shelving above the counter
• A floating wood stair with glass guard
• A light-wood cabinet and a framed coastal bottle print in the entry
• A bedroom with a sliding door that faces the inlet
Pale oak floors run through the main rooms, and large sliding doors link the living space to a deck. Because the project is still in progress, this page will continue to reflect the work as the house is finished on the Orleans waterfront.

The Revival House
Originally built in 1850, The Revival House is a transformative restoration and expansion of a historic 2,700-square-foot Colonial residence in the heart of Provincetown. Designed by architect Ted Smith, the project carefully preserves the character and proportions of the original structure while introducing a refined contemporary addition, a new 600-square-foot accessory dwelling unit, and an integrated outdoor living experience centered around a private pool. The renovation balances historic preservation with modern coastal living, reimagining one of Provincetown’s classic homes for the next generation.
These photos follow construction of The Revival House with architect Ted Smith. Green ZIP System sheathing wraps the tall main house and its window openings, and scaffolding rises along the front gable. Window trim details are visible on the upper floors.
Inside, exposed wood framing shows the stair openings and rafters. Daylight pours through the open walls. Window openings are framed and wrapped in the sheathing. Rows of studs and floor joists show the structure at every level.
• Brown-shingled accessory building with white-trimmed windows
• Pool excavation with poured concrete walls and forms
• Excavator working in the sandy yard
• Roof framing and open stairwell of the main house
The images show the stages of work behind the finished building, including the pool and the separate structure beside it. Photos from different angles show scaffolding, sheathed walls and open joists, a record of the building at each stage.

Renovation, Wellfleet, MA
This Wellfleet renovation is in progress, and the photos document the framing and building envelope as it comes together.
The exterior shows blue weather-resistive barrier covering the walls, with Marvin windows and doors set into the openings. Stacked wood framing and an upper-level volume with window openings are visible from the front and back.
Inside, the images show:
• Exposed wood beams and joists overhead
• Steel beams and brackets that support the structure
• Tongue-and-groove wood ceiling boards
• Ladders and scaffolding in a tall, open area
• Workers moving through the framed rooms
Wellfleet sits on the Outer Cape, among pine woods and tidal flats. These photographs show the structure and windows before finished surfaces cover them. Framing, weather barrier and window installation all happen at this stage, and each one has to be right before interior work begins.

Renovation, Provincetown
This in-progress renovation in Provincetown involves a hillside house overlooking the town. An old black-and-white photograph in the gallery shows the earlier house, with its chimney and deck, for comparison.
Photos of the work show cedar shingle walls with new windows, a curved balcony and wood decking. Inside, bright white rooms with sloped ceilings are being prepared, with protective floor covering and tools still in place.
• Tall gable window wall with a ceiling fan above
• Tiled shower with a recessed niche
• Walnut-toned cabinetry in the bath area
• Skylight and sliding door in an upper room A ladder and shop vacuum sit in one room.
The images show a project underway rather than a finished home. Open framing in earlier photos and blue-taped trim in later ones mark the sequence of work, from structure to finishes, still in progress at the time of the photographs.

Tidal Meadow Estate
This in-progress West Barnstable project combines a thoughtfully designed addition, full-home renovation, and upgraded septic system to transform the property into a more functional and cohesive coastal residence. The architectural approach balances traditional Cape character with refined contemporary detailing, incorporating expanded living spaces, improved natural light, and carefully integrated materials that respond to the surrounding landscape.
Aerial photos of Tidal Meadow Estate show the West Barnstable property in its setting, with salt marsh and open water beyond a grassy slope. The main house has weathered cedar shingle roofs and several connected gables, including an attached two-bay garage.
Construction views show the work underway: exposed ground beside the house, a framed wing, and vehicles parked in the court. A pergola-style frame stands near the garage side. The photographs capture the property from above and from inside as the work continues.
• Cedar shingle roofs and brick chimneys
• Bay window with marsh views
• Built-in closet shelving
• Laundry room with wood counter
• Gas lantern sconce on shingled siding
Inside, finishing work is visible, from a bay window with a fireplace to cabinets in a laundry room with a warm wood countertop. Paint supplies sit on the floor. Fresh white walls and trim await finishing touches.

Truro Coastal Retreat
Perched along the Truro shoreline, Truro Coastal Retreat is an in-progress transformation that embraces contemporary coastal living through clean architectural forms, expansive glazing, and a deep connection to the surrounding landscape. Designed to capture panoramic water views and natural light from nearly every angle, the home balances modern design with the quiet simplicity of the Outer Cape. Carefully integrated outdoor spaces, natural materials, and refined detailing throughout the residence create a retreat that feels both elevated and deeply rooted in its coastal setting.
Cape Associates is working on Truro Coastal Retreat, and the photographs show the home during construction and finishing. An aerial view shows a dark-roofed house on a dune with the beach just beside it.
Rooms inside have tall windows with views of the water and the sky. A skylight brings light into a vaulted room, and white wall paneling with horizontal grooves runs through the halls.
Bathroom work is shown mid-installation, with stacked gray stone tile, a floating wood vanity, a bench with speckled granite and a pink flamingo wallpaper mural. A built-in media wall and a covered entry with glass doors are also pictured.
The shoreline position shapes every view, with windows and glass doors oriented toward the horizon. The finish work on show includes wood floors, wall paneling, stone surfaces and fitted millwork, all suited to the coastal setting.

The Great Island House
This in-progress West Yarmouth residence pairs a custom main house and detached guest house through a cohesive architectural language rooted in contemporary coastal design. Clean massing, layered rooflines, natural cedar materials, and expansive glazing work together to create a refined waterfront compound that responds thoughtfully to light, scale, and the surrounding coastal landscape.
Cape Associates is building The Great Island House in West Yarmouth, and the photographs here show construction in progress. Cedar-shingled roofs and walls are going up on several connected volumes, some still wrapped in green weather barrier.
Views from above show the main house and the guest house sitting among bare trees, with water visible beyond. Skylight glazing and solar panels are visible on the roofs.
Inside, heavy timber framing is exposed in a tall room with large window openings. Other images show a trussed porch frame, rows of black-framed windows and an exposed foundation window well, so the structure can be seen as it takes shape.
Many building stages are visible here, from foundation and framing to roof sheathing, shingles and window installation. A guest house stands apart from the main house, and the cedar shingles give both buildings a matching, natural exterior.

Cape Associates is building a new Seamen's Bank branch in Provincetown. The photos show the project at several stages, from the site work and entry slab to the nearly finished interior. Site photos show fresh grading, a concrete walk and a landscaped lot still taking shape.
The exterior has gray siding, white trim, a cedar shingle gable and an arched entry with a lantern. A round window sits above the name sign, and black-framed windows run along the front.
Inside, a coffered ceiling with recessed lights and two brass chandeliers crowns the main banking hall. Teller counters have white tops and wood-toned drawers. Wood-look flooring runs through the support spaces. Windows in the offices are black-framed double-hung units, matching the front.
• Arched entry with lantern
• Coffered ceiling and chandeliers
• Teller stations under construction
• Staff kitchenette with gray cabinets
