Abstract

"inside story" piece on the collaboration of Tom Wright of Wright-Ryan Construction and Portland architect Winton Scott in the building of a harbor-view South Freeport home, which appears to emerge naturally from a glacial ridge. The house was designed as a "rebellion" against "McMansions," says Scott. No dynamite was used to excavate for the house, which zigzags across the ridge. Inside, a series of ascending platforms culminate in a southern deck with a 270-degree view. Wrights' grandfather and great-grandfather lived in Frank Lloyd Wright's (no relation) Heath House.
