Another beautiful modern home, this time surrounded by majestic pines that practically touch the sky. Heck, even the house practically touches the sky. Here is another great example of how a boxy home can feel just right when it's surrounded by trees.

One of the more popular modern houses on Houzz is this residence overlooking Flowing Lake. Glass exterior walls reach toward the lake, as does a terrace off to the side. The roof terrace is an especially nice touch that lifts people that much higher into the trees.

Flowing Lake Residenceby David Vandervort Architects The small and narrow lot extends dramatically down a steep slope to beautiful Flowing Lake in Snohomish County. Giant fir trees occupy the western half. The eastern half marred by the previous removal of a fire damaged cabin. Our challenge was to create a home for an active, young couple which preserved the trees and the remaining native landscape while extending toward and maximizing views of the lake. The solution was to create a path to the water alongside which a house was then placed. The path begins at the auto court with its detached garage/office. It then descends past the bedroom wing alongside the giant firs to mid-slope where a glass corridor/entry blurs the line between interior and exterior. From here the living areas open and cantilever toward the view, its glass façade maximizing both openness to the lake and the limited quantity of light. The upper level Master bedroom with its roof terrace hovers amongst the trees. These lake related portions of the house are all embraced by the wood clad wall providing privacy to the neighbors and focusing attention to the view. Continuing downslope the house bridges the path to a covered porch, further to a bunkered patio and finally to the lake edge itself with its restored wetland. The materials of the house are honest and natural. This allows the house to meld with the natural landscape so that by day it is difficult to isolate when viewed from the lake, while at night the home glows reassuringly

View from the top

This is a great example of what a three tier back deck brings. It offers covered and open space, covered and closed space and uncovered open space. the difference in cost is not that great compared to a two tier with the top being covered and closed.

can part of this structure be prefab??

waterproof roof deck for lower master This roof deck is constructed like any "flat" roof with a plastic membrane sloped to scuppers w/ downspouts. Concrete pavers supported by pedestals are then placed on top of this surface. The water flows through the gaps in the pavers to the membrane surface below.
