Project Description
FROM ROB CARLTON/CARLTON ARCHITECTURE + DESIGNBUILD:
The house is located on a steep site in a developed North Asheville neighborhood. The single sloped roof contrasts with the site topography, forming a modest entry that opens up to expansive views at the rear of the home. The living, dining, and outdoor areas are placed to capture these views of the surrounding Blue Ridge Mountains. The Interior is wrapped in warm cypress and European beach and is accented with darkened steel elements. Energy modeling during the design phase, along with LoE windows, foam insulation, and a geothermal heat pump create a very efficient home.
