Upon approach, an extraordinary home emerges on a seemingly impossible site to build. The client’s primary directive, to feel immersed in nature, could only be achieved with an abundance of pilings. Not unlike the towers of Dubai, these piers, driven and cast in situ, enable the architect to marry the home with it’s natural environment while minimizing the impact on the diverse aquatic habitat below. The result is a magnificent blend of client dreams with site opportunities. Interior spacial organization provides a central hub for life within the home while an expansive, retracting wall of glass provides a constant connection to nature with it’s diverse and ever-changing display of wildlife and waterfowl. An uncomplicated placement of volumes within the space contribute to the sense of calmness one feels here. An extravagant master suite will not disappoint and sits front and centre, offering a magical display of Shuswap shoreline and mountains beyond. Be sure to see the Virtual Tour. (id:2493)More details
