house of the week 92: Barnes House

Designed for a retired couple, the Barnes House by Patkau Architects is located on a rocky outcrop in British Columbia, Canada. With views of the Strait of Georgia under it's massive canopy, the house becomes a device framing the surrounding landscape for the occupants within.

    Patkau has some great work. I think they are an over looked firm...perhaps because they are from the Canadian west coast?

    Beautiful house though.
