River House
Squamish, Canada
Situated in the Squamish Valley, the River House is a carefully considered response to the unique challenges of its location. The project involved replacing an older home on a large, flat plot within a floodplain, bordered by rivers on both its east and west sides. This setting required a unique and robust approach to flood-proofing.
The design was driven by the need for a flood-resistant dwelling that blended naturally with its environment. Key to this was constructing a house that not only respected the landscape but also mitigated flood risk by being raised above potential water levels. The plan included a main residence and a coach house, with the latter reflecting the main house’s design in a simpler form, creating a cohesive architectural look.
