I don't know if I'd call it cozy. The floor plan is on the smaller side (compared with the absurdly sized American houses these days), but the massive vaulted ceilings are a far cry from the small or cozy chalets that have been built in the Alps for centuries. Still a beautiful home nonetheless.
The segmentation and division of spaces are very well planned I am much amazed on the details and in-depth meanings of the walls, ceiling, and vision-observation access strategies thru emphasis and subtractions. As a first-year architecture student, I am rather inspired to work and think like these two professionals. As expected from architects.
My favorites from the tour would absolutely be the lighting and the other interior design elements. The house itself I find of secondary interest. Too many stairs that they will regret in a few years including for the dog as it ages, though probably necessary because of the site.
It would be useful to update on this house report. I like the 1900sqft space. The description says "discuss the environmental construction challenges" but in this brief five minute video, that topic was not mentioned. : ) It would be most useful to hear about locally sourced sustainable materials. Important topics: 1) wildfire precautions and defensible space, fireproof materials (roof and siding,) water storage (for fire suppression and survival) 2) energy efficiency (insulation, hvac, water usage, grey water recycling, solar, battery, generator) 3) air quality, water quality 4) durability (materials and products (e.g. doors) resistance to weathering and seasonal loads from summer heat to snow) 5) maintenance (e.g. keeping drains and gutters clear, roof, chimneys) 6) livability (year round comfort, e.g. indoor temperature regulation, access, e.g. plowing or snow melt) As someone building in Olympic Valley, it's difficult to find people conversant with these "basics" of present day construction. It's even more difficult to find examples of projects (started or finished) that employ state of the art methods and practices.
@@SteveThompson-li2fc Well, "build" is more "attempt to prevent from actually collapsing" and "afford" … well, that's completely out of the question. : )
i notice that architects always add, "space" onto the end of every room... e.g. study space, instead of just study. Here, they've used it 16 times in 5 minutes
Nice looking home. Not sure about the need for so many levels. Carrying groceries up several flights of stairs gets old fast. I like the use of stonework on the exterior a lot more than the relatively unexciting interior. I'd liked to have heard more about energy efficiency/air-tightness/healthy materials of the building itself.
It’s really frustrating to see architects put creative effort into everything, (and make no mistake, this is a fantastic house) but then cheap-out on the roof.
Love the wood, hate the exposed concrete, so so about the white sheetrock... it's OK but not very imaginative or special. Outside, again the exposed concrete kinda kills the aesthetic that the rock was working so hard to provide.
A truly beautiful house, beautifully built and designed!
The library is brilliant use of space! Love it. And the drawers for bottles of oils, sauce etc! Love that detail.
Designing your own house is the best feeling❤
Imagine getting married to someone who loves what you love😍😍
It just feels like watching your comments, 😭😁

not that cool :(
No thanks
It looks welcoming and has a nice flow while still being able to enjoy the beautiful outdoors. The lighter tone wood gives it a calming feel.
Beautiful home, reminds me of the chalets built in the 80's.
Love it because it is such a cozy cabin, and not some huge massive space.

Chalet houses are my alltime favorite house type.
Like a rich man's log cabin. Same home-y touch, but better.
Well done design. It fits into the landscape. If I were to replace my current log home I think I would do something similar.
lovely place and lovely couple
Omg with a capital OMG….love love love it….. amazing!
Beautiful!
A truly beautiful house and small request can we take this hose plane.
will be visiting lake tahoe in a few weeks.... Can't wait!

wonderful view from the house, design style relative to surrounding environment,

Nice, Beautiful Dream House ❤
I like the place.. so cozy, clean, peaceful… i wonder if it would stay like that once i take my 3 teenagers in that place..
very beautiful
I bet the drywall guys loved doing those window casings!
This is beautiful! I wish I knew where I could get that huge sliding door that they have to replace my sticky wood sliders
Gorgeous, dream house.
A big thumbs up. Well done
Beautiful home and people and ❤dog 🤓
Beautiful house, you guys! 😁
Are we all going to pretend that the Poulson fixture was not in their budget? Nice video though, that part made me chuckle

Outstanding points, but at least you can afford to build in Olympic Valley!

Lovely house
Love the house, hate the asphalt shingle roof.

I'm an architect and it's true 😂
Wow, what kind of wood is that?

Can you Construct A 5bhk Chalet Plan
The design is intriguing. How can I contact them?
I liked the idea of having the garage let out into the foyer so the owner of the house gets to see a grand entrance day to day.
Curious if the selection of asphalt shingles was a functional choice or budget decision?

Why is master bed so narrow?
No mention of children or "the kids loved this" or "we designed this for our firstborn"
no parties!
lets go
So many stairs for a retirement-era home. But lovely nonetheless.
GOOD. HOUSE. G. AND. DOG
Безусловно, дом красив! И вписывается в природный ландшафт. Но внутренняя отделка, заставляет по нервничать. Уж слишком противоречивые цвета.
First :)

I like the concrete, to each their own...
