This home is approached from above, so creating an iconic roof form was a natural solution. The foundation and some main floor framing of the previous home was left in place. Autos now drive onto a concrete slab poured on the original kitchen floor.

If this looks steep to you, it is. The lower level is designed to be finished in the future. The 1800 sf of finished area has been designed for passive heating and cooling.

This project was completed for a modest budget but still includes nice details and lighting.

The view from the kitchen sink (which is even prettier with snow or in the other three seasons).

The master bathroom is also a calm respite from the cruel outside world. Eventually, there will be a towel on that rack and an insulated blind in the recess above the window.

The guest bathroom is a little spicier, with warm colors and a dramatic black vanity. All of these materials were purchased on the internet at significant savings over retail.
