Mountain Craftsman Bungalow

Shed roof over the entry and lower level south facing windows provides critical shading on hot summer afternoons, shelters the main entry door, and helps break up the height of a 1 1/2 story gable wall. West facing windows are shaded by vegetation on the hillside above, but still provide lots of natural light in late afternoon. Rooftop cupola/ light monitor is centered over an upper level bridge connecting living spaces tucked under the steep main roof. Rusty metal wainscot protects the base of the house and blends with the natural landscape and mountain setting. Exposed soffits express the roof structure and corrugated raw steel roofing
