Approached initially to consult on site-selection, the firm encouraged the clients to focus on features that are unique to the San Juans such as grassy basalt rock outcroppings set within a Douglas fir and pacific madrone forest. The owners later purchased a hillside parcel possessing these features, the rock outcroppings forming a small clearing.

The main idea of the design is based on a combination of modern style and organic style. (In the style of organic architecture, there is a balance between humanity and its surroundings. Eco-materials and sustainable energy are used. It is believed that the surrounding nature should be used in the interior design space of the house and flow in it.)
