The clients wanted to be able to enjoy the landscape from both inside and outside the home—and the outdoor areas needed to be protected from the weather, which is often windy. "That’s why we have the outdoor space to the north of the building," explains Solgaard. The deck gets evening sun until 10pm in the summer, and views to the water are preserved by large windows and a glazed wall.
