A 3-story open plan house of 5400SF features complex interior volumes of varying height, an exposed steel structure, extensive glazing of tinted and opaque glass, and exterior cladding of pre-finished metal panels and ground-face concrete masonry.
The owner requested a house of uncompromising modern design with large open spaces for entertaining, a master suite with sunroom, space for overnight guests, housekeeper accommodation, and extensive exterior terraces. Concentrated eastern glazing opens the entire house to the commanding lake view. The design opportunity allowed freedom to build dramatic spaces with features reflecting the owner's personality. Concern for natural light and ventilation has produced a constantly changing interior environment of remarkable comfort.
