Explore This Amazing WorkCabin on a Rock Weekend Residence
The Cabin on a Rock perches precariously over a steep drop-off in New Hampshire‘s White Mountains, affording dramatic views across the valley below. The cantilevering structure is lifted on 9 hand-poured footings in order to tread lightly on the sloped site. The faceted geometry of the 85sm modern mountain retreat reflects the evolution of the young growing family for which it was designed - a form that is both elemental yet is in constant transformation. The cabin combines custom design with prefabrication technology to make a lasting connection between a unique site and its occupants.
