The Green House is tucked into a forest, beside a stream, at the end of a field on a small farm in Gibsons, British Columbia. The dwelling presents a familiar, modest architectural profile appropriate to its rural setting. The small family home is oriented to optimize views of the surrounding forest and field, prioritizing landscape connection. Interior and exterior spaces benefit from carefully placed, and at times playful, windows that frame views from each location. These window strategies create framed vistas, daylighting, and moments of surprise that reinforce inhabitation of the site while maintaining a restrained, domestic scale.
