Hillside Modern

JMAD as Architects

Modern forms create a striking visual against the rural landscape in our Hillside Modern. A key feature? It is built into the hillside, so from a front entry perspective, it is subdued or almost hidden.

To harmonize it with its natural environment, we ground it with a heavy use of stone and wood. Using natural materials in a modern way gives it a sense of permanence and place.
