Description

The Smith Home, a family collaboration and legacy project nestled in a hidden pocket of Boise???s beloved East End. Drawing inspiration from ???Villa Mairea,??? the dwelling embraces the core principles of Mid-Century design while using the native geography. Influenced by Boise???s mountainous landscape and natural tones, the color and material palette reinforce a devoted union to the earth and locale. The design takes advantage of the cooler temperatures along the Boise River by maximizing mechanical efficiency with low-energy passive cooling and a state-of-the-art radiant heating system. Incredible tongue-and-groove cedar walls & ceilings, hardwood floors, and exquisite Loewen?? wood windows and doors lean towards an outdoor courtyard cradled in shade gardens, where verdant hues compliment the sultry reds and browns of the wood. Multitudes of clerestory windows and glass doors perform a time-orchestrated play of light throughout the home while opening for spectacular indoor/outdoor living.
