The inspiration for the exterior of this 1500 SF lakefront house was an abandoned mine building in Telluride, Colorado. The 100 year old reclaimed wood barn boards blend with rust-painted siding and iconic roof forms to capture the essence of a utilitarian vernacular structure.
Olson Kundig Architects, Sherry Williamson Design, Michael Boucher Landscape Architect, and Woodmeister Master Builders joined forces to create East Coast Compound—a four‑building lakefront haven that meets the rigorous LEED Platinum standard.
