“Artistecture" - this home creation was modified from a Boise Cascade Corporation blueprint prototype when the company entered the home building industry. Art-educators, as purchaser-occupants, expanded a 1,000-1200 sq ft plan to a 2,700 ft, 1.5 story, vaulted, skylit, voluminous home with classic, timeless materials: granite, marble, brick, stainless steel, and lots of glass. One feels the volume of space in cubic feet as it rises to the 2nd floor loft, walkway, and angled ceilings with skylights perpendicular to the peaks. The lines are clean and crisp without extra flourish or embellishment. The built-in kitchen cabinets are inconspicuous. The laundry, wet bar, pantry, and storage areas are handy, but not demanding attention. They're as capable as the King's Guard and equally still and discreet. The stainless steel wrap-around dining counter can't be ignored. Full description on page 3.

One feels the volume of space in cubic feet as it rises to the 2nd floor loft, walkway, and angled ceilings with skylights perpendicular to the peaks. The lines are clean and crisp without extra flourish or embellishment. The built-in kitchen cabinets are inconspicuous. The laundry, wet bar, pantry, and storage areas are handy, but not demanding attention. They're as capable as the King's Guard and equally still and discreet. The stainless steel wrap-around dining counter can't be ignored. It reflects sun rays from the southern bank of wall-to-wall windows and ceiling skylights like flickering glints of white light from ocean waves. Yes, the house has common functional elements: 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, a 2-car attached garage, but it isn't a predictable, ordinary, rectanglar house in the city subdivisions. This light box in the center of a forested retreat is a one-of-a-kind design. It's like jazz - you can experience, see, and feel it; but it's tough to explain. Light performs ever-changing dances through the skylights and windows. Hard surface roads assist a slick escape from the busy-ness and stress of work on the hill or in town. As the road starts to curve and sway up to the specially selected site, the country driveway turns to a short ascent over gravel to the sanctuary's entrances. Take a look for yourself and imagine how it would feel to live in a work of art. It's a unique, one of a kind custom, imagined and created by artists.
