Leitz Dwelling and Twins Cottage
Gig Harbor, WA
Steve and Paula Leitz found a great three
acre lot in Gig Harbor that feels as if you are in a sheltering forest. Steve and Paula asked us to design a home
that reflects their sense of relaxed lifestyle and provides an appropriate setting for socializing.
Just to make the design project more
challenging, we were asked by Paula's mother Hazel and her twin sister Helen to design a cottage for them on the
same site.
Our process of discovery led to a design
concept of a combined home based around a spiral courtyard. The courtyard hat has been designed using the mathematical
principal of the 'Golden Mean'.
