Architecture Wednesday: Ridge House



I love this house, located in the mountains of West Virginia, because of its simple design and because of its breathtaking views of the mountains and the river in the distance.

The owner asked for a cabin in which the environment could be ever-so-present. This resulted in large glass walls and a house angled on the property simply to take advantage of those views with terraces from where you can enjoy the sun setting beyond the horizon.

The interior is kept simple, yet inviting, without what the owner dubbed “unnecessary luxuries”, since the most luxurious thing about the house is where it sits and what can be seen from inside or out.

And I love that.

  1. This one is a tad to minimal for me, and reminds me if a glorified garden shed.

    It is a little shed-like, but that view down to the river sings to me ... with wine.
