The materials for the prefab were chosen to help the lodge blend into the wood. According to the architects, “the lodge features an intentionally limited palette of natural materials, including the same species of timber, western red cedar, on the external cladding and internal lining. Left unfinished, the exterior will weather naturally to a silver-gray color that is reminiscent of the local landscape, which will contrast the cozy, warmer tones of the interior."

I wanted it to feel as unfinished and natural as possible."
The upper levels of the six-bedroom, four-bathroom Mountain House feature large picture windows that offer sweeping valley views.

There will also be plenty of space for an outdoor shower and a lush barbecue area with seating."
