Detailed information

Overlooking a glacial lake, Boundary Point Cabin is a cantilevered home clad in dark stained western red cedar siding and fiber cement panels; blurring the structure and allowing it to dissolve into its surroundings. The design includes a RAICO timber curtain wall with slender steel cross bracing, pre-finished birch plywood panels for warmth and light, and a trellis of Douglas fir beams framing the lake.
