Blowing Rock
Samsel Architects
With a site situated on a steep slope near Blowing Rock, the design sought to provide an appropriate solution for the land and landscape. Samsel Architects proposed a thin linear footprint that follows the site contours and provides long range views from every room in the house. A contemporary craftsman style presents an original design aesthetic that maintains warmth and utilizes a rich palette of colors and materials. An elevator enables the master suite location on the upper level, taking advantage of views and natural ventilation.
