Arranged around a courtyard, this house can provide a sheltered on the ridge. This house is divided into four parts and each of them is oriented to solar exposure and different views. There is a large screen porch that can create a connection between the sleeping and living wings, providing insect-free outdoor dining and living space as well.
With cathedral ceilings, the shed roofs slope with the hill’s contours to reduce the overall impact and scale to the building‘s structure as it is viewed from the floor of the valley.
