For a new family house in Martis Camp, the overriding influences at play are consistency and grounding: consistency in materiality and aesthetic, from room to room and from indoor to outdoor, and grounding in place, both within the home and in its forested setting, through the home’s architecture.

• Objectives: The intention of this remodel project was to breathe new life and invigorate a dated, timber-laden home with the energy reflective of the young homeowners raising their children here.

The aesthetics of the main house and guesthouse flow effortlessly but also stand out individually.
