This 5000sf residence is a celebration of structural fundamentals. Massive glass walls offer expansive views of the Cascade Range and the Cowlitz River Valley in its descent to the Columbia.
Connected by a glass bridge, a separated master suite tucks into an oak grove and turns its attention away from the main house bustle.
The sympathetic qualities of wood provide a simple warmth and fitness for purpose. Independent of the main house structure, the master bedroom is warmed by a corner fireplace and heated floors.
Utilizing simplicity of structure and decoration the art collection becomes dramatic and dominate.
Mimicking a traditional bivouac, an enormous ‘fly over’ roof shelters the home from buffeting mountain winds and drifting snow. Natural materials reflect the quality of the site in color, texture, and character.
