Client: Teryl Mullock Architect Ltd |
This private residence for Teryl and his partner Nancy is an economical yet elegant structure, with a gently sloping roof opening up to the east to take advantage of the spectacular views and daylight. A great room on the upper floor flows onto a generous cedar deck, while guest rooms and an office on the lower floor open onto a patio. The home incorporates passive as well as active solar heating. Solar panels on the garage roof pre-heat water for the domestic and radiant heating systems. Local cedar and fir was used for the beams, trims, decks, and siding elements.
The interiors have a serene quality, with recycled fir flooring upstairs, polished concrete floors downstairs, and fir windows and doors throughout. Soapstone counters and fir cabinets create a warm and highly functional kitchen area, with a generous island designed for entertaining.
