We are excited to share that Timber Lane Retreat has been featured in Dezeen!
Perched on a Lake Michigan bluff surrounded by mature trees, the project weaves resilience with elegance, creating a refuge as enduring as the lake and horizon it embraces. Designed for two city-dwelling empty-nesters who envisioned a year-round sanctuary for family gatherings, it is a ‘forever’ home, uniquely theirs.
In the feature, we reflect on how the site’s unique conditions informed the design:
“The site offered a spectacular lake view but also demanded privacy, wind resistance and a sensitivity to the neighboring street….Every decision–the courtyard, the staggered plan, the material palette–came from balancing those competing demands. The result is a home that feels open and expansive, but also grounded and quiet.“
