Stoltz Kau Architects — Orcas Island, WA, 2010
Set into a south-facing waterfront slope near Guthrie Cove, this compact two bedroom house animates a simple rectangular footprint with a set of articulated roof overhangs and variations in color and siding. Entered at a mid-level landing via a decked bridgeway, the house is simply organized with a series of 14 foot wide glassy waterfront rooms supported by 7 foot wide upland accessory spaces.
