Sonoma Hills

Located in Northern California's Wine Country, an eroded hill of exposed basalt stone boulders covered with a stand of black and white oak set the character for the site. Hot summers and mild, rainy winters drive the climate. Parallel to the contours, three one-story rectangular sheds are woven into the hillside in a settlement-like pattern with sloped roofs that follow the hillside. Offset laterally, the forms make territory for exterior living, sheltered from prevailing winds by their arrangement.
