A luxurious home with a subtle, yet strong commitment to sustainable living.
Integrating high-end modern design and a commitment to green building, the Wheeler Residence makes use of an existing foundation to create dramatic living spaces that flow into the landscape.
The material palette includes COR-TEN steel, stained concrete mixed with fly-ash, and FinPly panels. Passive ventilation, radiant floors, solar hot water and photovoltaic power dramatically reduce energy use.

"My son built a Lego model of what we wanted, and we showed it to him. A lot of that model ended up in the final place."
