Sunset Knoll House

A custom residential home, long and slender. The house has exposed concrete and wood siding. Large windows give views into every room of the house.

The sloping site for this modest, two-bedroom house provides views through an oak savanna to Oregon’s Yamhill Valley and the Coast Range of mountains. Our clients asked for a simple, modern, and comfortable house that would take advantage of both close and distant views. Its long, bar-shaped plan allows for views from each space, maximum day-lighting, and natural ventilation.

  • Location: Yamhill, OR

    Centered in the bar-shaped plan is the great room, which includes the living, dining, and kitchen spaces.

    To one side is a large deck and to the other, a terrace.

    The material palette is simple: beams, windows, doors, and cabinets are all douglas fir. The floors are either hardwood or slate.

  • DESIGN TEAM: Richard Brown AIA, Geoffrey Harker, Hope Telford AIA, and Jason Didion
