The Overstory House —- Marrowstone Island, WA
Perched on a forested slope with sweeping views to the Sound, the Overstory House sits underneath the wide canopy of existing fir trees. The house acts as a bird blind, concealed within the forest and receding into the shadows of the undergrowth and the silver bark trunks.
“This is not our world with trees in it. It's a world of trees, where humans have just arrived.” ― Richard Powers, The Overstory
