Twin Chimney House

A new lake house, floating between the trees. The structure hovers on stilts to touch the ground lightly, navigate the rolling terrain, and cast long views over the lake while keeping all living spaces on a single level. Large expanses of glass and a wrap around deck are designed to take advantage of long summer evenings. A secret screened porch access from the kitchen cabinetry offers protection from mosquitoes throughout the seasons. Materials are chosen for durability and longevity. Sustainably grown north American larch and ash dress the facades and decks and interior paneling. Soapstone dresses the bathrooms, the non-porous properties offering both a practical and spa-like atmosphere.

A house for all seasons, the giant limestone fireplace warms the great room when snow falls outside. A highly insulated building envelope and an efficient ERV ventilation system support comfort, energy efficiency, and year-round use. An escape from the city, designed to endure as a family lake house for generations.
