As a result, the main floor is perched amongst the tree canopies and sited to capture views towards the water while also providing privacy from adjacent neighbors. On the lower level, a smaller footprint provides secondary functions and a seamless connection to the outdoors.
This stair leads to the “tent like” bedrooms with low walls on the second floor. Both ends of the residence have indoor/outdoor spaces. There is also a deck and elevated catwalk that runs between the trees, across a small valley, and empties onto a grassy clearing in the woods where the family used to camp.
As architects, part of our job is to weave the various requirements with the client’s ideas and goals to create a design solution that meets both the big picture dreams as well as the technical minutia.
