The modestly scaled retreat sits lightly on the landscape in a remote site located twenty minutes outside the small arts colony of Marfa, Texas. The initial house is a do-all outpost— the first of three modules that were planned for the site. The module arrived complete with an outdoor shed and a fully finished interior and exterior. The idea of luxury based on size is overturned, instead prioritizing the uniqueness of place through an efficient, multi-use space and simple, elegant detailing.
