Vineyard road RESIDENCE

To engage the sloping topography and to create a sense of “place”, this residence was pulled apart into two wings. Simple iconic metal-roofed elements clad in fire-proof siding are elevated at the entry by a stained cedar feature - adding to the animated nature of the composition is the primary North view elevation clad in a steel sunshade and steel window wall. Steel and wood trellis and arcades help to shelter the house from the hot summer sun and are designed to allow the low winter sun to penetrate deep into the living spaces.
