This house is in a neighborhood of small cottages. It has a long, low eave and an arrangement of forms (gable, shed, and chimney) that is almost lego-like in its simplicity. The entry has a contrasting glazed form tucked below the eave which protrudes through the shed roof above. The house rises as it sets back from the street. Its "L" shape creates a private outdoor area facing south in the rear. Inside, mouldings and other embellishments have been simplified to place the focus on the natural materials (wood, stone, and metal) and on the play of light on the various walls.
