A modernist at heart, she celebrated the work of Frank Lloyd Wright and took inspiration from his balance of structure and form, always using the natural surroundings as the starting and ending points A few of her favorite projects can still be enjoyed today: the Quadrangle at the Marine Biological Laboratory and the Waterfront Park stand as living reminders of Martha's contributions to village life in Woods Hole, Massachusetts.
