This project is located on Gamier Island, on a large waterfront lot 40 minutes from the mainland by private boat or water taxi. Well protected within Centro Bay, the shoreline consists of an existing stone beach surrounded by steep wooded areas. The switchback path necessitated by the terrain is extended beyond landscape into the dwelling and is a primary organizational structure. In lieu of the full-frontal exposure and unidirectional orientation common to the ‘type’ of waterfront home, the occupants are directed to experience the diversity of the site as they move through the dwelling.
