Site size: 317,535 square feet Project size: 1,700 square feet Program: A young Vancouver couple desired a weekend retreat for themselves and their two children on the rugged coast of British Columbia. Location: The site was critical in shaping the house's design and construction. Situated within a protected forest and next to its own waterfront, its remoteness promised tranquility but demanded environmental sensitivity in its construction strategy. Solution: The principal in charge of the project, Steve McFarlane, based in North Vancouver, sought a modern take on the classic 'cabin in the woods' by balancing picturesque roughness with a modern aesthetic.
