The client wanted a ‘Frank Lloyd Wright’ prairie style house and the low ceiling heights were appropriate for the ‘Prairie style’. The design of the house centers on its relationship to the landscape, as the house comes out of the hill it is set into.
This two-story contemporary 14,506 SF house sits on a 4.75 acre lot in West Bloomfield. The single family home has three bedrooms, seven bathrooms and approximately 8,259 SF of floor space with a detached five car garage.
From inside the house, every room has a view to the the lush landscape. The appearance of exterior, window heights and use of materials needed to be addressed in relation to additional height to elevation. The exterior is finished with brick.
