#mountain-retreat

This project is born as a retreat space, conceived from introspection. A personal and private spa in the mountains of Tapalpa, where the architecture deliberately renounces the idea of a facade: there is no gesture towards the outside, no frontal composition. The building seeks not to be seen, but to be inhabited.

Set high in the Sierra on a little more than two-thirds of an acre, the scenic property includes a main house, a three-bedroom guesthouse, a patio with a fire pit, and a snowmobile garage. Inside, an updated floor plan of nearly 5,000 square feet frames views of the mountains and Bear Lake through rows of glass windows.
