David's House

David's House, A Modern Family Home - 3800 sq ft - Ontario, Canada Similar to horizontal lines, angled walls anchor the house to the land, contributing to the organic nature of the design. This gives the illusion that the home has risen from the land, in harmony with its surroundings. David was inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright’s Taliesin West when designing the angled walls. The light colour of the Douglas Fir wood allowed David to emphasize the architecture of the house. It is a mix of opposites: the rustic materials juxtaposed against the smooth, refined elements. The wood accents reinforce the horizontal design, as Douglas Fir is a tight, straight-grained wood.
