The building’s massing establishes a quiet presence on the site while enabling distinct zones for retreat, work, and gathering. A U-shaped configuration creates a private courtyard that draws light into the interior and extends the sense of space beyond the envelope. Each wing is designed to afford both connection and separation, supporting the couple’s evolving daily routines.
A continuous insulation and rain screen wall system wraps the entire structure, enhancing energy efficiency and building performance. The exterior is clad in Accoya wood, a modified timber chosen for its dimensional stability, weather resistance, and low-maintenance aging. This material, combined with precise detailing and a restrained palette, reinforces the project’s commitment to durability and simplicity.
