"The 2400 sf Hillside House sits comfortably on a forested slope strewn with enormous boulders. The owners entrusted us with their dream of a comfortable home for an active family of five."
"At our first meeting, one of the owners shared a sketch of a u-shaped floor plan that literally hugged the largest, most prominent boulder. Although practicalities intervened, embracing the boulder was the seed of the design and we kept it in mind as the project developed."
The Hillside House is a 2400 square foot residential project situated on a forested slope featuring enormous boulders. Designed for an active family of five, the home was conceived around the owners' initial vision of a u-shaped floor plan that would embrace the largest and most prominent boulder on the site. While practical considerations required modifications during development, the concept of integrating the boulder remained central to the design philosophy. The architects maintained this guiding principle throughout the project, resulting in a residence that harmonizes with its natural landscape and geological features.
