P1.12KK_34-660x666

The Douglas House seated by Lake Michigan in Harbor Springs, Michigan. The structure sits on top of a cliff. Meier’s describes it as being dropped on the cliff in the middle of the nature. The front door is entered on the top floor. There is a separation of public and private space. Part of the public space is the back of the house. It has huge windows that let in the natural lighting, and give an open feeling to the home. This also gives the views of Lake Michigan. Two staircases were placed to not get the way of the view. Meier’s says the the view of the house is almost as if it is floating among the trees. The Douglas House leaves a piece of art in a natural environment.
