This residence is the initial move in a larger vision for a family compound.
The small structure - which will eventually become a guest house, is a composition of simple forms that combine to create distinctly functional spaces. The low-slung, solid, northern portion of the house contains bathing facilities and a private outdoor shower/courtyard. The gable-formed, larger volume is a single open room that provides sleeping, food preparation, and living space - all opened onto an expansive view of upstate farmland and rolling hills.
