Hi, an thanks for the inquiry. This house was a VERY site specific design. The lot sloped at about 40% grade, and the views were primarily toward the side opposite the road access. The Dining Room and deck were designed to frame views of Mt. Mitchell (highest point east of the Mississippi) to the North. So it was designed for an extremely unique lot. Most of my work is for unique projects. I'd be happy to talk to you about one for your lot if you are interested in learning more about the process.
