LOCATION : Montana de Oro, CA

PROBLEM STATEMENT : Design a retreat house inspired by the work of artist Robert Irwin. The program includes 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, kitchen, storage and utility, work space, and a "light" space to be used as both a gathering and contemplative space.

DESIGN GOALS :
- create the illusion of layers of transparency / translucency
- imply a whole cube without the use of explicit corners
