ABOVE & FACING PAGE: This personal retreat was inspired by a treasured stone and wood home lost to fire decades earlier in the hills of Appalachia. The goal wasn't to
simply recreate it, but to give its spirit new form in the Pacific Northwest, specifically in its remote site in the San Juan Islands. Simple stone volumes grow naturally f rom
their rocky surroundings, with a main house and a guest house each responding to their own unique location on the site. Taking full advantage of sweeping views of Puget
Sound, the project is sited on a small plateau high atop a steeply sloping hillside.
