MODERN HOUSE DESIGNS

When Turnbull Griffin Haesloop Architects took to creating this stunning timber wood Home in Glenbrook, Nevada, it was “wooded” bliss from the start.

At the foot of a wooded hill rising in the background, the main house and guest house sit on a tree-sheltered courtyard, peacefully protected and private in its natural setting. This country home facade boasts log ... Continue >

Nestled on a 30-mile bluff surrounded by vegetation, this rustic yet refined home sits on a slope with its intersecting volumes radiating out from the central foyer.
