Roundstone Design Home & Studio
 
Tucked away down an ancient country road is the Roundstone Design Home & Studio.
With an original Usonian design, the structure decorates 
the  forest that surrounds it, without overpowering the beauty of the Beech, Oak, Maple & Pine trees.
      
  
The design's connection to nature is evident through the prevalent use of glass and clerestory skyscape which make many of the rooms transparent.
Roof and deck planes step down from the studio to the house.
Built into a hill, stepping down from it's crest, the master bedroom at the top and a cantilevered deck at the bottom, the structures are carefully integrated into the site.
The horizontal focus is expressed in the dramatic overhangs, creating shade and shelter throughout the year.

  

      The wooden foundation is a unique building technique, that truly exemplifies environmentally conscious design and building.  


The interior rooms are seperated by partial walls, this design feature facilitates air circulation through out the house.
The floor is a beautiful bamboo, adding a sustainable finish to the rest of the wooden structure.
