A house on a rock shoreline on Gambier Island, with wood ceilings and windows onto the forest and the water. Black Thumb Contracting built it from a Linwood Homes materials package delivered to the site by barge and helicopter.

Aerial along a rocky shoreline, the house set back in dense evergreens above green water

Straight down over the roof and its solar panels, rock and turquoise water alongside

A ramp down to a float with a moored boat, mountains across the channel

The house seen through tall trunks and low green understorey from the forest floor

The house across a dirt clearing in the trees, a log splitter and tools nearby

Entry elevation with a gabled porch on wood posts, the door open to the interior

The house standing on wood posts among tall trees, its roof pitched up toward the light

End wall and window under a deep overhang, the deck carried on wood posts

The long glazed elevation above a wide deck, forest rising behind, a dog on the boards

The house on a moss covered rock outcrop, its deck on posts above the drop

Looking along the lap siding and a dark screen door, deck boards running to the water

Deck under a wood soffit, sliding glass along the wall and forest beyond the edge

Roof edge from below, wood soffit boards and a braced post against a dark fascia

A wide wood post set between dark window frames and textured lap siding

A diagonal wood brace meeting the roof, forest out of focus behind it

The deck curving along the glazing under a wood soffit, tall trees over the water

A sliding door open from the deck to a bedroom, wood braces along the wall

Wood boards running across the ceiling to a wall of tall windows in wood frames

A wood stove against a stone chimney wall, dining table and kitchen beyond

The wood stove alight on its stone hearth, split firewood stacked in a wood rack

A wall of wood boards filling the frame, knots and grain in even light

Dining table with green chairs, kitchen island and wood doors under a wood ceiling

Dining table set for a meal, the kitchen beyond, a person and a dog at the counter

A circular wood panel with a black and pale carved design on a white wall

The kitchen island in the foreground, sliding glass open to trees and the water

The kitchen from the dining side, island counter at right and white cabinets beyond

Kitchen elevation with white cabinets to the ceiling, a sink and a black tap

A gas range beside a counter, an awning window in a wood frame above the backsplash

The range below a wood framed window, herbs and cut flowers along the counter

Across the island to the range, an orca cut out on the wall beside the window

Bedroom with sliding glass to the forest, a plaid blanket across the bed

Bedroom lined in wood boards, windows and clerestory glazing onto trees and the water

A round mirror in a live edge wood frame above a grey vessel basin

The vanity looking through an open doorway to a bed and windows onto the trees

A tiled shower with a glass door, a recessed niche in the back wall

The wooded point from the air, the house small on the shore below a distant mountain
