Lakeside stands in Birmingham, United States, where Disbrow Iannuzzi Architects shape a Y-shaped house along the River Rouge and its mature gardens.

Inside, the rooms read like a lived-in gallery for handcrafted objects and decades of landscape care.

Inside, calm finishes and controlled light keep the focus on climate, texture, and the slow movement of the day.
