Island Meadow Residence

Location: Lopez Island, Washington

Status: Concept Design

Services: Architecture

Project Type: New Construction Single Family Residence

Owner: Private

We helped the owners vision to build a minimal pacific northwest style modern residence that takes advantage of Lopez Island stunning beaty. Although not a water view, this site site has stunning views of a meadow and mountains in the background.

We took that starting vision, and developed into 2 primary building masses that their orientation match their program function. Glass opens to face views, while large overhangs that allow for weather protection of all season enjoyment.
