Not many clients come to us with a written narrative for their home, but we love when they do. While the site was still a wooded lot, this residence was already dreamed up to be a cozy welcoming space for the clients along with their family and friends, as a space to return to between outdoor activities, work, and everything else life throws their way. As a primary residence, comfort and health took top priority, ensuring natural resilient finishes, well-insulated exterior, and sweeping views of their beautiful surroundings of woods and water. With opportunities to engage with nature and guests at all levels, the house and surrounding landscaping provided larger gathering spaces for festivities, alongside smaller areas for one or two to enjoy a moment of reflection, each filled with natural light and a view to nature.
