Shadow Box

Designed by Katherine Hillbrand
with Chris Meyer, AIA and Katie Leaf, AIA, Ann Hauer, Max Mahaffey and Marc Sloot, AIA

Designed for clients with a highly-developed sense of design, this sculptural home set deeply into the hillside of the Stillwater countryside features charred wood siding (shou sugi ban), cantilevered roof overhangs, and a glass bridge that visually separates the public and private spaces of the house. The design team worked closely with the family to create a home with a strong, modern architectural statement yet filled with lively, light-filled spaces both large and small, that accommodate the needs and lifestyle of a young and growing family.

Contrasting materials, textures, and patterns complement one another to create balanced and joyful spaces. Energy-efficient design features and technology, such as solar photovoltaic panels, a green roof, and geothermal energy systems, allows the homeowner to eventually become energy independent.
