Wilkinson Residence – Portland

Dans un esprit qui pourra nous rappeler la Maison de la cascade construite d’après les plans de l’architecte américain Frank Lloyd Wright, un très gros coup de coeur pour la superbe Wilkinson Residence, une très belle villa imaginée par l’architecte Robert Harvey Oshatz et construite dans la forêt de Portland. Une splendide maison parfaitement intégrée dans la nature à découvrir en images dans la suite !

Description originale

Located on a flag lot, a steep sloping grade provided the opportunity to bring the main level of the house into the tree canopy to evoke the feeling of being in a tree house.    A lover of music, the client wanted a house that not only became part of the natural landscape but also addressed the flow of music. This house evades the mechanics of the camera; it is difficult to capture the way the interior space flows seamlessly through to the exterior. One must actually stroll through the house to grasp its complexities and its connection to the exterior. One example is a natural wood ceiling, floating on curved laminated wood beams, passing through a generous glass wall which wraps around the main living room. Designed : 1997 – Completed : 2004
