Condo Renovation, Provincetown, MA

Cape Associates renovated this Provincetown condominium working with b Architecture Studio. The photographs show a compact, light-filled home on the water, where large windows look across a small deck and a stretch of beach.

The living space is open and clean-lined. A staircase with light treads and a metal rail rises beside a seating area with navy furniture, and pale wood floors run through the dining area and kitchen.

The kitchen has white cabinets, a stone-topped counter with two stools and a dark tile floor. A sleeping nook with frosted sliding panels, a ceiling with white-painted beams and a bath finished in green tile show how every part of a small footprint was put to use.

Natural light is the thread through every room shown. White walls, pale wood floors and exposed ceiling beams keep the finishes quiet, which lets the water views and the colors of the furniture, artwork and tile stand out.
