North Bank Road: Exploring Barn Form in a Forest House Setting

North Bank Road is a house in Washington D.C., United States, designed by Pierre Maré Architects. Conceived as a comfortable contemporary family home, it responds to a wooded setting and demanding seasonal shifts with a pared-back exterior, durable construction, and interiors that pull light deep into the plan. The project balances shelter, warmth, and daily livability without losing sight of the landscape around it.
