New York studio Axis Mundi designed Ark House, a project to be set in the mountainside of Madison Valley, Montana. Featuring a 60 foot internal bridge, the building will feature two steeply-sloping roof structures.
The living areas and bedrooms of the four-story barn-like structure will overlook the mountains, as well the home features a 4800 sq ft observation deck.
A word from the design team (headed by John Beckmann):
Montana’s Western mountains have been lifted and folded by plate tectonics and sculpted by glaciers over millions of years. The project is situated on a sloping windswept bluff overlooking Beaver Head National Forest with extraordinary views of Big Sky Mountain.
In a world which is increasingly becoming placeless, our clients requested that we design their home with cultural specificity. It should be of its time, yet be part of the place they love – the vast ancient landscape of Montana.
