Private ResidenceNew ConstructionOakland Development

This project is a new construction private residence in Highlands, North Carolina. While I am not the Designer for this project, I am the sole draft-er. Due to site constraints, the house pivots at a 32 degree angle, and the resultant space becomes an important transition piece between the main house, the garage, and the prized glass room. I was tasked with resolv-ing the complex geometry of this space. In addition, the house is angled into a dramatic slope that descends steeply on the back side of the prop-erty. To help the Owners and Builder better understand the topography of the site and how the house connects to it, I built a 3D model in SketchUp. The steep grade created the need for a sub-basement and a suspended garage slab. These factors added to the complexity of the wall sections.
