Looking at the raw build, the form of the residence begins to emerge in these critical phases of construction. The early framework reveals the intricate logic of the elevated structure, showing exactly how the building is simultaneously nestled into the slope and lifted. The contrast between the rigid, precise framing and the organic, unrefined grade of the land—whether bare in spring or blanketed in winter snow—underscores the deliberate engineering required to execute this vision.

This approach essentially creates a "building-within-the-view." The structural supports create the very platform from which the surrounding landscape is experienced, blurring the lines between the engineered environment and the natural one.
