The cliffs at Big Sur provide an endless source of inspiration, from dramatically angled forms to layered patterns of rock. We channeled these elements into the stone walls of the house to echo the formation of the surrounding landforms. 📷 @joefletcherphoto Landscape: @jlja Construction: @dowbuilt @constructionbyhuntsbrothers #BigSur #design #sketch #BigSurHouse #fieldarchitecture #fieldarchca #coastalarchitecture #californiaarchitecture #caarchitecture #residentialarchitecture #californiacoast #site #northerncalifornia #stone #PacificCoast #cliff

Many thanks to the esteemed jury for this huge honor, and to our amazing team for the incredible work on Madrone Ridge. “The house, which melds its indoor and outdoor spaces successfully, has an ephemeral quality that allows it to blend into the landscape. Celebrating its structural system, and ensuring it remains a visible element, is a lovely detail.” Jury Comment 📷 @joefletcherphoto Interiors: @annlowengartinteriors Construction: @dowbuilt Landscape: @lutskoassociates Fabrication: @spearhead.ca #MadroneRidge #AIANational #serene #natural #moderndesign #modernarchitecture #californiahome #californiaarchitecture #architecture #landscapearchitecture #homeinspiration #architecturephotography #architectureinspiration #fieldarchitecture #residentialdesign #architecturephotography #goldenhour #oaks #oak #oaktree #fieldarchca #award #architizer #architizerawards
