Situated just below the crown of a mountain top outside of Asheville, the Southcliff Residence was conceived from the outset as a design to allow the owners and their family to connect as much as possible to both the tremendous views available to them while also embracing a reverence for the calmness and protection of the forest around them.
To that end, the design was conceived as a three sided courtyard home with the “fourth wall” of the courtyard being the existing forest edge. The two flanking concrete wings deeply anchor the home into the land while supporting the great room bar of the house as it lightly cantilevers into the trees and extends out to the views beyond.
