Trout Lake, United States – Olson Kundig
Project Year : 2016
Developed Area : 612.6 m2

Trout Lake House is a retreat built for two artists. They wanted a home where they can work when they want to and relax when they need to.
The requirement was simple: to maximize indoor/outdoor living opportunities while remaining connected to the surrounding landscape.
The home is composed of four gabled structures made from metal roofing and locally milled timber. It has a rustic-looking facade that blends well with the surroundings. This contrasts well with the inside of the house: luxurious and modern with a minimalist design.
Trout Lake House skillfully combines the beauty of the outdoors with the comfort of the indoors. With warm interiors and windows that frame picture-perfect views, the house embodies relaxed living.
Notes from the Architect:
“The buildings recall the agricultural forms of the local built environment, but as is our nature in our designs, we sought to take that context and evolve it to a more emphatic modern language. We sought to design something that was exquisitely proportioned in a quiet, agricultural way.” –Tom Kundig, Design Principal
