The contemporary chalet houses, situated at the foot of Slovenia’s most majestic mountains, subtly intertwine tradition, innovation, nature, and architecture. Designed by Dekleva Gregorič Architects, their concept responds on multiple levels to the rich Alpine architectural heritage and the challenges of their unique location on the edge of Triglav National Park, at the tripoint where the Alps have historically connected the cultures of Slovenia, Italy, and Austria for centuries.
Nestled in the tranquil scenery of the Pacific Northwest, Discovery Bay House exemplifies a harmonious blend of intellectual depth, artistic innovation, and natural harmony. Designed for Michael Ross by Dekleva Gregorič Architects, this custom house incorporates a three-dimensional structural grid of Douglas fir posts and beams and birch plywood panels. With its low-impact design philosophy, the house achieves a negative carbon footprint while inviting occupants to engage directly with the natural warmth of the wood.
