Shuler ArchitectureThis is a little project we did for a friend a few years ago. Our client approached us after the south face of her house had deteriorated to the point that severe rot and mold had invaded the structure. She also wanted to give the front of her house a facelift and create some more curb appeal. On little projects like these, budget often dictates our design solution and our approach is to maximize value on behalf of our clients. We don't trying to win design awards with these small projects nor are we trying to get published. Our goal is to simply and elegantly solve the problem we are presented with at a price point that our client can afford.
There are several ideas we incorporated into this design solution. Foremost was to solve the water infiltration into the building envelope. The structure faces due south and takes a beating from all of the winter storms we get here in the Pacific Northwest. In the summer, harsh sun warps and cracks most siding materials. This solution entailed stripping the entire south facing facade down to the studs, tearing out all of the rotted lumber and reframing this wall to accept new windows. This wall was then insulated, sheathed, covered with a high performance building paper and then sided with a cementitious siding material.We added a cover at the front door to both protect the house and to announce the entry.
The element of time plays a large role in our designs and in this case we wanted to highlight the transition from the outer environment to protected interior of the home. Finally, with the addition of the minimal arbor we created a public space on the front of the house that allows for gathering, gives the house more visual interest and provides a public zone between the house and the street. This zone is literally a way for our client, who runs a business on the upper level of her home, to get out of her house and interact with the world. In short, this was a contextual solution that blends in well with its neighbors and promotes community through a classic front porch design. Our client spends a lot of time here in the summers chatting with neighbors, enjoying a glass of wine and watching the setting sun.

Prull Custom BuildersBordering on 68,000 unobstructed acres of the Bureau of Land Management, this exquisite home commands dramatic mountain & prairie views, from the majestic Sangre de Cristos to the east to the extensive stretches of the Jemez/Badlands to the west. Designed in the Mid-Century Modern vernacular ‘form follows function’ the structure presents with clean rectilinear lines, sloping roofs, and organic use of materials, incorporating steel, stone and stucco, deeply etched with endless sheets of glass, providing a seamless indoor/outdoor flow.
Distinguishing features showcase 3 sloping roofs piercing the glass with 3” tongue and groove Alaskan Yellow Cedar, bringing one continuous ceiling plane inside/out. In sharp contrast, highly polished concrete micro-slab floors glisten softly under the voluminous illumination of LED recessed lighting. Cantilevered portals, with stepped metal fascia, frame out the 3 sections of the home, as they wraparound the bold enveloping walls.
The natural use of wood, between African teak and walnut, bring warmth in both the custom interior doors and cabinetry. Most spectacular to the home’s design and connectivity, and prominently positioned in 3 key passageways, include a floor to ceiling glass atrium luxuriating in natural light between the kitchen and family room, a sleek 10 foot stretch of glass hallway connecting the master and main living wings, and a massive 600 pound cold rolled plate steel entry door, with patinaed oversized brass handle, all symmetrically, and artistically positioned for a harmonious flow.
