Garden Wall Residence, Exterior

“Approached through a forested plateau of ponderosa pine, this residence for a young family is a delicate stripe across the horizon.”

Exterior uses a neutral color palette with modern and clean lines.

Exterior at Night

The house was designed to glow like a lantern at twilight.

Snow buries scrub oak trees in front of the home's west elevation.

Rear view of home.

The mostly transparent street elevation gives a glimpse into the home, while the fireplace feature wall provides privacy to the rear spaces. The structural grid is expressed at the exterior with black cladding wrapped onto the steel frame between the wall panels. A continuous band of clerestory windows wraps the entire home and gives the roof a floating feel.
