Silver Residence / not / applicable projects

The Silver Residence is a mountainous retreat in the foothills of the northern Cascade mountains. Surrounded by evergreen forest, the home occupies a small meadowed clearing populated with mature Big Leaf Maple trees. The goal of the design was for the house to participate in the experience of the meadow from inside and out. Taking inspiration from the English Picturesque and the vernacular wooden barns of the region, the house is consciously sited the house with particular vantages in mind. A repurposed ruin that has only recently been rediscovered.
