This design, a 3,800 square foot private residence, addresses two levels of experience. One is peripheral, inviting one to perceive distant views while also engaging with the immediate landscape. A linear rock outcropping and major views define the south exposure. The residence maintains a thin, linear profile, parallel to the outcropping, allowing interior spaces multiple exposure to views and natural light. Site walls extend to engage the site, defining outdoor rooms. The second experience is vertical, as perceived within the spaces. The hybrid roof forms enable a variety of ceiling heights allowing, in some spaces, natural light to filter in from above through various clerestory windows. The varied composition of the roof responds, visually, to the profile of the rock outcropping. A continuous and compositionally repetitive porch mediates, visually, between the fragmentary nature of the roof and outcropping, while transitioning, spatially, between inside and out.
