A high-performance year-round mountain retreat integrating rugged regional materiality with hospitality for trail hikers.
Set within New Hampshire’s White Mountains, this 4,500-square-foot year-round residence demonstrates how energy efficiency, durability, and architectural expression can coexist. The home’s form and orientation respond directly to the rugged setting, with strategic glazing that framing panoramic views while maintaining a high-performance building envelope. Inside, shared living spaces capture shifting seasonal weather and balance daily family life with quiet retreat. Reflecting a unique spirit of hospitality, the upper level features a dedicated bunkroom to shelter Appalachian Trail thru-hikers. The result is a resilient mountain home that balances shelter with openness.
