Black Hills · Tall windows, warm materials and spaces made for gathering.
The project
Open to the light. Rooted in the setting.
My Place centers everyday life on a soaring shared room, where tall windows bring the pine-tree setting into view. A wood-clad fireplace rises through the space, balanced by an open stair and an upper gallery. Warm cabinetry, wood ceilings and textured furnishings give the contemporary architecture an inviting character.
The main kitchen and long dining table keep meals connected to the living room. A separate recreation space adds a bar, games and lounge seating, while guest bedrooms and bunks offer a quieter retreat. Outside, covered seating, outdoor dining and a hot tub extend the home toward the surrounding woods.
