Canyon Residence
Yakima, WA
Located above a parched ravine, this property is characterized by rugged cliffs and outcroppings with softly rolling hills in the background. The architectural forms integrate the rugged, stark qualities of the site and provide a seamless bridge between the natural and the manmade. Low-sloping roofs mirror the soft curves of rolling hills while the stone clad walls complement the rugged cliffs nearby.

"Our home captures the beauty of this area with a creek below and sagebrush everywhere. In spite of its mass, people feel welcomed, warm, and cozy here. We had a lot to say about the design, and it has a cool, funky, just-on-the-edge feeling. Our kids have had a blast growing up in this house, and we often dance in the halls."
