This is a working model still in progress- the site has a pretty good slope to it, and I like to leave the grade showing as how it intersects the building.
This is showing the Entry feature, that is actually the back of the house. This is the way visitors will first see the house. They wanted a high ceiling entry flanked with stone walls.
One of the most important features that they wanted was a large covered deck with a BBQ, Fireplace and TV to hang out on that faces the Western Water view. A place to enjoy the sunsets.
