The Far Pond House by Bates Masi Architects features a plentiful amount of glass windows, however, much research was put into the design to ensure that they were sturdy enough to bear any large storms sweeping through the area.
The overall design of the house is reminiscent of a cabin set in the woods, however this abode is the main living space for the owners. The inside features wood finishing, and a large deck extends out the back to offer ample space for relaxing in the summer. What's more is that the house has views overlooking the ocean and certain areas of the wetlands, so residences can kick back in style.
While the windows may not provide that much privacy, they certainly bring the owners in touch with their natural surroundings.
