Entry / Stairs
Originally I thought maybe the basement stairs and upstairs would be parallel like in that picture, with a sliding panel across the bottom (for temperature control) but that probably doesn't make sense, plus there are air ducts and pipes running up from the basement there. I found the design for the last picture (10/10) in this collection as perhaps an interesting way to marry the stairs problem with the entrance problem. From the outside entrance, if we are using the walkway, I like how in photo 6/10, visually the walkway and lighting help the person know where to go. If a door were visible, having it the same color as the walkway would help too.
This single-family residence in Bloomfield, Michigan, known as the Treehaus, embodies the iconic style of midcentury modernism. Thanks to a thoughtful renovation, this rare dwelling has been restored to its original state of refined elegance.
The material palette of Suns End Retreat includes Douglas fir that wraps the floors, walls, and ceiling. Wheeler Kearns Architects say the home's “calm, natural earth tones read quietly in concert with the natural surroundings.”
The frosted glass-fronted cabinet in the living room contains shoes and bags on the side by the entrance and tableware nearer to the kitchen.
Front approach reveals entry bridge and house in the woods.
Downward stairway as the main access. The steps skirt around a beautiful tree.
