October 15, 1987 wall sections and details Roc's comments: We did an addition to the Thayer School of Engineering at Dartmouth when I was an associate at the firm of Venturi, Rauch and Scott Brown in Philadelphia. It was a pleasure and education working for Bob Venturi and John Rauch as the Project Manager on this project. The stock market took a dive when the bids were due and this project came in one million dollars under budget. The professors were delighted when we used the money to upgrade their laboratory equipment. This was the only class 1000 clean room I was involved with and I enjoyed doing the drawings of the entry structure and overseers room myself. Tom Fisher was the project manager for the very complicated construction phase and the Boston firm Payette Associates expert laboratory designers were our partners on this project. As complicated as anything I have ever done and a great preparation for the two hospital additions we did in later years. I liked this kind of complicated work. After this project the Venturi firm was asked to do two major projects for Dartmouth.

Mrs. Burkhardt loved Japanese architecture and brought a number of books to the office. We had a great time working together and they lived their remaining years together in their dream house. I think we did this one in early 2000.

They had funded a Fay Jones Church near Hot Springs Arkansas and liked architecture. They were patient and good natured and always brought the best out of me. I like them very much and we became good friends. Our office designed six buildings for them. Three here on MDI (two built) and three in Hot Springs (one built) The people who helped me with the construction drawings were Tod Hardy and Jeff Wright.

Roc drawing for Robert Knight, Architect in Blue Hill foundation and framing plan, floor plans, details, elevations, kitchen, bath, schedules Roc's Comments: This is not a house I designed but it was done by my friend and former Yale Architecture classmate, Bob Knight. As I recall I was out of work and called Bob to see if he needed help and he asked me to do the construction drawings for this one. I was happy for the work. The final project was a great success and I am proud to have been associated with Bob.

basement/foundation plan, details and specifications, floor plans, elevations, sections, details, schedules Roc's Comments: Sam and Mary Alice Fox were two retired doctors. They had quite an amazing history and decided to retire to his family's vacation site on the Southern end of Long Pond. Wonderful site and truly inspiring people. We went thru an orderly and thorough design and construction process and I enjoyed every moment of it and was honored to be their friend here on MDI after that. We always had some little project to solve together, but I think it was just an excuse to hang out. Their family were all very tall, thus the lofty feeling inside. Mary Alice had severe arthritis and we installed a good sized hot tub off of their master bathroom. No moisture problems due to serious research on our part. If this house pleases the viewer, they are getting just a small sense of how wonderful these two were.

proposed relocation and addition Roc's Comments: The Fox Family needed more vacation space for their growing families. Mary Alice had died and Sam at 90+ needed a good project to sink his teeth into. This house was really done for the adult children Emily Conant, Sam Fox Jr., Edward?, and their families. Turned out well.
