Located on Dabob Bay, just off of Washington’s Hood Canal, this family retreat was conceived to engage and preserve the natural qualities of the site.  Water, forest, mountain and ravine views are captured from every space as the sweeping plan follows the topography and the tree line.  An effort was made to leave the delicate site in its natural condition, no trees were cut and little earth was moved in placing the building.

This vacation retreat, located on an extraordinary beachfront setting, was designed as two separate buildings—one for living and eating, and the other for sleeping. The separate bedroom wing provides extra privacy, so late-night entertaining does not disturb sleeping children or weary parents, as the case may be. Extensive water views, generous decks, and the sheltering orientation of the two buildings contribute to a fluid relationship between living areas and the surrounding seascape.
