Nestled along the rugged shoreline of Lake Michigan, the Lower Shore Residence embodies modern living seamlessly integrated with nature. Designed for a family passionate about outdoor adventures and entertaining, this home serves as an elegant launchpad for exploration and connection to its breathtaking surroundings.
The residence features three distinct volumes: two warm, wood-clad boxes housing intimate sleeping and support spaces, complemented by a taller, transparent box that welcomes vibrant public areas. A discreet entryway framed by a striking exposed concrete wall unveils the heart of the home—a captivating four-season room that frames sweeping views of the shimmering waters beyond.
Expansive window walls on the lakeside flood the living spaces with natural light, offering picturesque vistas, while solid walls adorned with high clerestory windows provide a serene retreat from the road, ensuring privacy and tranquility. Anchored by monumental cast-in-place concrete fireplaces, the airy glass box exudes warmth and character.
The four-season room, positioned at the core of the residence, fosters an immersive indoor-outdoor lifestyle year-round. While the lower volumes employ traditional residential framing, the glass box showcases innovative external steel framing and glulam beams, resulting in a dynamic and inviting space.
Emphasizing energy efficiency, the home incorporates high R-value assemblies, continuous mineral wool insulation, and extended overhangs to minimize solar gain. The material palette—sustainable Accoya wood cladding, raw concrete, and painted steel—highlights modern elegance, uniting contemporary living with the rugged beauty of northern Michigan.
