Staggered Cabin is a cabin in South Lake Tahoe, United States, designed by Mork-Ulnes Architects. Completed in 2025, it adapts to a steep Sierra Nevada site with a series of shed-roofed volumes that step down the slope and shape small outdoor courts. Inside, a compact plan arranges sleeping rooms and baths around a central living and dining area, with plywood finishes and mezzanines extending the cabin’s usable footprint.
Octothorpe House settles low in Bend, United States, where Mork-Ulnes Architects explore a cross-laminated timber house shaped by light and memory. Four slender shed-roofed wings organize the home into public and private realms, drawing desert views deep indoors while small planted courts mark pauses along the way. The result is a calm, contemporary dwelling that treats circulation as both route and room.
Kailua House sits just inland from the shoreline of Kailua, Hawaii, United States, where Mork-Ulnes Architects shape a dense neighborhood lot into an inward-looking retreat. The house turns toward lush planting, a grass-roofed lanai, and a long pool, arranging daily life around water, shade, and garden rather than the street. Inside, warm timber, concrete, and broad glass walls support a calm rhythm of cooking, gathering, and rest tuned to the island climate.
Meticulously redesigned by Mork-Ulnes Architects in 2022, The Silver Lining House stands as a beacon of contemporary architecture nestled in San Francisco’s historic Bernal Heights neighborhood.
Offering breathtaking panoramas of San Francisco’s iconic Twin Peaks, the three-story abode is not only a homage to the city’s storied past but also a vivid capsule of art, design, and inspiration.
