Pretty wild to see this house that I designed sell for a record breaking price for Portsmouth, RI! I’m often asked about whether modern design is a good investment in New England where traditional architecture is very much the norm. I firmly believe that it is, and based on this I’d say the answer is a resounding yes as the original homeowners nearly doubled their investment! Yay modern! Yay design!

Exciting day for the Cote family, today we got to step foot on our new second floor and the boys got to see their new bedroom! We’re undergoing a full gut renovation to our tiny weird house, opening up the first floor and adding a second floor. It’s beyond exciting, a long time in the making. Massive props to Anna for her patience dealing up with a slow and busy architect husband ❤️

We wouldn’t be doing it without the incredible help of Behan Bros., Inc., Coastal Construction and Millwork LLC, Camera - O'Neill Consulting Engineers, Inc., Ugol Woodworks, Ecologic Insulation, UG Nasons, HVAC, Pella Windows and Doors of Southern New England and the rest of the team. Stay tuned for more updates!

If anyone needs me this week I’ll be sitting on this deck alternating back and forth between coffee and cocktails enjoying this crappy view. And don’t bother trying either, he’s off galavanting in San Francisco.

The Cote Architecture team, aka and myself, had an incredible time last night seeing one of our favorite bands . After the show we had a chance to talk to Ian, the singer / guitarist, to tell him how amazing the show was. We also decided it would be fun to show him the Easter egg that Nathan put into the rendering for an exciting new project (that happens to double as the renovation of my and ‘s house!), their amazing new album A Way Forward sitting on my coffee table. Ian thought it was pretty cool!

Speaking of my coffee table, check out the amazing !

And lastly, no music post would be complete without mentioning the absolutely crucial to my life and who has intruded me to this amazing band and countless others. Go have a listen, it’ll change your life, and join us in supporting them during their spring fundraising drive.
