Located on 35 acres outside of Whitefish Montana, the Stillwater residence by PBW Architects sits at the edge of a field along the Stillwater River. Meant as a second home for quiet retreats as well as larger gatherings, eventually the clients plan to move in permanently to take advantage of the scenery, outdoor activities, and remoteness of the rural site. They strongly desired a light touch, restoring the existing disturbances to the land where possible, and requested that we design with sustainable elements of all sorts, from low-tech passive solar strategies to cutting-edge climate control systems.
