This modern home uses color and pattern to help distinguish the modulations in form. The large amounts of glazing provide views of the lake from all rooms. The entire house opens onto the lake. The new house utilizes an existing footprint, stepping back as required by current regulations. The center red section identifies the circulation, with a stair traveling from top to bottom. Although the house faces east, it is filled with light all day long due to the reflection off of the lake—a truly spectacular place to spend the day.
