Brownlee House

Our aim for this project was to create a standout property that sets itself apart from the surrounding homes. With strict covenants in place, we opted for a design that features blocks of varying heights and a striking, protruding roof with adjacent directions. Directional cedar lines the soffits and cathedral ceilings, drawing the eye through the façade and engaging the interior. The rooms are positioned around a central staircase, bringing light into the core of the house and drawing hot air out through a SE top light window. The materials palette combines natural cedar, stone, and plaster, maintaining a neutral position that complements the environment.
