Home built around a boulder


View this post on Instagram

Now this house rocks! Desert Modernist #AlbertFrey intentionally designed #FreyHouseII around a large boulder to honor + incorporate the natural environment. . "I had a very careful survey made showing the contours and all the rock. Then I put up some strings to see how the design would work out. We then established the levels, and then I had to fit the glass to the rock. The slope of the roof follows the slope of the terrain, the contrast between the natural rock and the high tech materials is rather exciting.” - Albert Frey, via @PSArtMuseum . 📷: @justinracinowski
