This residence in Big Timber, Montana is sited in a clearing within a grove of trees that reveals a clear view of the distant mountain range. It sits on a porous plinth lifting the finish floors well above the flood line: the house will appear to float on the river as waters pass around and under the foundation. The house presents two distinct and separate facades on arrival, revealing itself after the visitor enters as two interlocking objects– one, a two-level glass wedge, the other a one story wooden bar joined together to form a “T” shape. A glass enclosed hall along the western side of the residence adds to the width of the wooden structure.
