secret island house

This island house by Miller Hull architects is so beautiful – modern design of wood, stone and plenty of glass, yet the outcome is very cozy and warm. It was build along the contours of the landscape to accommodate and reflect the low meadow, an old-growth forest of 75-100 foot Douglas Fir and a steep bluff overlooking the Puget sound and Olympic Mountain in Washington State.

The main residence, separated into three wings, burrows into the bluff’s knoll and conceals the dramatic western views beyond. The interior has plenty of open space and high ceilings, and the materials again are very natural consisting mainly of exposed wood, concrete and stone. A true modern retreat!
