BELOW LEFT: Tall vaulted ceilings give the rustic great
room an almost cathedral-like feel. Natural stone and hand-
selected timber beams pay homage to the Pacific Northwest
landscape. The organic nature of the forms and materials
used in the design mirror the natural patterns of the site as
seen through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

FACING PAGE TOP: The covered outdoor room juts out from
the rest of the home so that nature surrounds it on three
sides. Corner Nana Doors fold open for a seamless transition
to the yard.
