The site sits on a bench high above the river, bisected with a natural berm. While this provided privacy, it required the main rooms to be focused in different directions to preserve the grand views.

The architects devised a solution of creating an “L” shaped plan, where the great room faces one way and the master bedroom faces the other way.
