RIVERSIDE HOME

The Clients wanted this Timberpeg® post and beam home to reflect – in materials and shapes – the environment in which it was located. In addition, they wished to design and build a truly small, intimate home.  With inspiration from a beloved children’s book, the Client presented SDA with a rough sketch of a cottage with steeply-peaked dormers and roof.  From that sketch, this riverside home took shape.  In every design decision along the way, both SDA and the Client strove to make sure that this little house by the river remained just that, a house that belonged in its setting.

The home features Douglas Fir posts and beams, pine paneling, salvaged barn board flooring, spruce, cherry and pine cabinetry, and a chimney and fireplace constructed by a local stone mason using fieldstones, recycled brick, and granite.  The Client incorporated found and recycled objects in the home, including a salvaged sliding barn door.
