House on Monte Sano Mountain
Huntsville, AL


Sited on a mountain top in northeast Alabama this house overlooks the city of Huntsville to the west and the mountains of Tennessee to the north. The project is comprises a 10,000 sq. ft. main house and, at the bluff's edge, a pool and poolhouse. The combination of site, program and climate required a solution that is both monumental and intimate. The design is informed by the most essential architectural issues: mass/void, light/shadow, assembly and materiality.
