The scale of this project refers more to the chapel or to the barn than to the house. The wooden hull defines a unique and oversized space in which is inscribed a sculpted object. Without ever touching the envelope this object integrates the bathroom, sleeping area and the enclosed beds, stairs, and the library. The entire inner cladding, composed of panels of plywood against pine is soft and warm, in contrast to the raw and rough outer skin. The natural skin patina developed over time creates and ageless building, giving the impression that it has always been there.

It merits mentioning three items of the design’s environmental approach:

Use of the site without earthwork 

Wood heating and passive solar 

No electrical connection
