Architecture and interior design firm FBM have recently completed a new contemporary house for an active couple in their seventies and their visiting family.
The house sits in a meadow in Scotch Cove, Nova Scotia, Canada.

The project consists of a main house and an out-building containing a dwelling and a workshop. The roof extends out at the end of the main house, creating a pergola for an outdoor patio.

Inside the main house, there’s a large open room that’s home to the living room, dining area and kitchen. A stone fireplace surround has been built to accommodate firewood storage, while behind is a small sitting area and the hallway to the bedrooms and bathrooms.

Behind the living room is the dining area. Floor-to-ceiling windows provide ocean views and separate tables have been set up so that one can be dedicated to being a games table, and the other a dining table. Their are multiple doors that open up to the outdoor areas.

In the kitchen, minimalist white cabinets have been paired with wood counters to create a contemporary appearance.
