Natural Timber Lake Henry Point by Michael Flowers Architect

Henry Point by Michael Flowers Architect
The Henry Point sited on a hillside overlooking Hayde Lake formed as loft additional and intensive reprogramming of an existing lake cabin. Michael Flowers Architect projects the house to capture natural landscape through a series of decks and operable facades that create large indoor/outdoor gathering spaces as well as two independent living areas.

The addition is shifted back to produce a sequence of spatial filters that smoothly mediate levels of exposure for more private areas of the home and take advantage of numerous views to the lake. Remaining connected through the kitchen, dining, and living areas, the addition and existing cabin act as a series of transitional interior and exterior spaces, with the ability to adapt to seasons, lake lifestyle, and the evolving needs of a growing family, while keeping the idea of lake cabin and bunk house intact.

Materials are local and native to the area, to take on the color and patina of Northern Idaho. These materials include fir, concrete, steel, and basalt, all of which are durable and low maintenance helping mediate the extreme seasonal conditions at the lake edge. Most wood was salvaged from an eastern Washington grain silo built in the early 1900’s and milled specifically for use at Henry Point.

The timber work on this building is amazing. Lovely clean lines and the way it has been tied to the natural wood environs is quite pleasing to the eye. I also like the way that timber feel flows down to meet the rocky plinth, makes it feel very organic and green. The large lounge windows do a great job lighting those internal spaces which appear to just flow into each other, with the staircase being a nice unifying element between the upper and lower volumes.
