House in Forested Landscape – Chauncey Knoll Residence by Carlton Architecture

One-of-a-kind house designs are always interesting because they usually have something to learn from. Chauncey Knoll Residence is one of those houses located in the forested landscape in Carolina. Surrounded by old-growth trees house’s materials like yellow pine, poplar, white oak, fieldstone and crab orchard sandstone perfectly blends in aesthetic natural design. All that materials and craftsmanship belongs to the region where the house is located, that’s how it gets its uniqueness. The design became not only warm and natural but also modern. The construction price also was budget because of low maintenance materials, energy saving methods and technologies and low transport costs. The house is designed by Carlton Architecture.
