This project was driven almost exclusively by the goal to orient each of the living spaces toward views of Flathead Lake. The dynamic site is both deep and steep with three tiers of land that transition from the road down to the lake.
Tucked into the Catskills woods, the Olive Passive House is a monolith with voids articulately chosen to optimize views, light, and privacy. The South-facing elevation is carved at an angle towards the East, framing the view of the pond while reducing the solar heat gain in the summer months.
Our client, an avid outdoorsman and environmentalist, came to us with a unique piece of land within a red spruce forest on a mountain ridge at 5,700 feet elevation. The dense evergreen forest and high elevation create a microclimate and habitat that supports rare species of flora and fauna.
The Ocean Cliffside Residence was a challenging and rewarding build that ultimately resulted in checking all the boxes for the owner, design team and ourselves.

Caught between a walled garden along the street and a central courtyard behind, the interior opens resolutely to the out-of-doors under a ubiquitous ceiling plane and is minimally contained by custom site-glazed window walls.
