The design process: Residence at Dancing Oaks



Here I will show my basic design process at work in the design of a home at Dancing Oaks Nursery, in Monmouth, Oregon. I will illustrate the step-by-step adaptations and shaping of the house, and spaces around the house. A variety of principles will be illustrated, using photographs and drawings from the project.

Above is a view of the empty site, which is an east-facing hillside overlooking the nursery.
