- Style: Modern Lake House

## Project overview

This lake house sits on a point with water on three sides, so every main room was planned around the view. Tall sliding doors open the great room straight onto the lake, and a covered walk ties the house to its guest wing.

The palette is dark and quiet so the water does the talking: stained wood walls and ceilings, slate floors, stacked stone, and a few bright moments in brass and veined marble. A sauna, a tiled outdoor shower and a bar make it a place to stay all weekend.

## What we built

1. Great room with full-height sliding doors to the lake
2. Stacked stone, dark-stained siding and timber pergolas
3. Wood-clad ceilings and slate floors through the main rooms
4. Sauna, tiled outdoor shower and bar
5. Built on a narrow point with shoreline on three sides

## How it was built

1. Framing on the point, roof deck going down
2. Dried in, with the shoreline wall complete
