Ridge Retreat

This retreat is conceived as a lightweight architectural insertion, carefully suspended between rock, water, and canopy. A curved timber deck negotiates the cliff edge with precision, while a slender roof plane floats above vertical timber fins and glazed walls. The structure minimises ground disturbance, allowing landscape, light, and sound to remain dominant. The proposal is entirely conceptual, testing how dwelling can coexist with terrain rather than compete with it.
