Leicester, NC

Located in the mountains of western North Carolina, this 2,000-square-foot custom residence balances modern precision with the warmth of natural materials. The two-story form is defined by a wood-clad upper volume that cantilevers over a dark-toned base, incorporating private balconies, generous glazing, a covered patio, and a rooftop deck.

Conceived as a home in close relationship with its land, the design integrates sustainable strategies including energy-efficient systems, rainwater collection, and productive landscape elements such as a raised bed garden and fruit orchard. Surrounded by native forest and open sky, the house frames the changing Appalachian seasons while offering a quiet, grounded place to live.
