Energy Star Rated Home

"This house represents affordable materials and agricultural stereotypes in a unique architectural composition. This house is a place for a creative and passionate family to live and work. This house is for a family that values design; a family that wanted something special for what they could afford. This house is Energy Star Rated. Our clients came to us with the desire for a unique live/work house that would provide them with interesting spatial overlaps and a place to be creative, constructed in a simple and cost effective way. This house is wrapped in a skin of solid and perforated corten steel which acts as a visual screen, rain screen, canopy, and sunshade, and a constantly evolving element in the landscape."
