Finished homes

Six homes on the Boise Foothills, from 2,620 to 6,800 sq ft. Two began as plans from our Plans page; four were drawn from a blank sheet.

Six homes, illustrative renders

The homes and their lots are invented, and every picture is a generated render.

Three gabled volumes step down a ridge top at blue hour, with a cedar loggia across the middle, a lap pool in front and every window lit under a deep blue sky.Illustrative render

Three gables stepping down a ridge top, a cedar loggia between them, and a lap pool that holds the last of the sky.

A long oak dining table with ten chairs under a slim bronze pendant, the kitchen beyond, and a wall of glass doors onto a loggia and a pool at dusk.
Dining room, with the kitchen beyond.
The end of a lap pool at golden hour: still dark water reflecting cedar loggia columns, with a low oak bench and native grasses beside it.
The far end of the lap pool.
A two-storey home after a light snow: a tall stone-and-charcoal-board gable on the left, a lower garage wing with two cedar-slat doors on the right and a recessed cedar entry between, among snow-dusted sage and foothills under an overcast sky.Illustrative render

The Owyhee Rim

The Owyhee Rim with the garage wing set back and turned, so the street sees one clean stone-and-board gable, and the kitchen gets the foothills.

A white-oak kitchen with a long pale quartzite island, three leather-and-oak stools, black dome pendants and a dark tile range wall, with a side window onto snow-dusted foothills.
The kitchen, in winter.
The recessed entry after snow: a cedar front door standing open, a stone wall with a lit lantern, a flat cedar canopy with downlights, and basalt step stones dusted with snow among frosted shrubs and a bare birch.
The recessed entry and cedar door, in winter.
A long, low single-storey home at golden hour: a tall glass gable at one end, a covered porch on square cedar posts, a stone chimney and silver-tan cedar siding above a meadow of native grasses.Illustrative render

The Hollis

The Hollis, lengthened by one bay for a study, and turned so the vaulted great room and the covered porch face up the draw.

A vaulted great room with a pale oak ceiling and a stone fireplace on the left, a linen sofa and two leather chairs, and a glass wall opening to the porch and the foothills.
The vaulted great room.
The covered porch at blue hour: a row of cedar posts, a plank ceiling with downlights, and two oak chairs around a low stone fire table with a small flame.
The covered porch and fire table.
A large home on a broad saddle between two ridges at blue hour: a glass great-room gable framed in timber at the centre, a stone-and-board wing on each side and a small casita to the right, every window lit.Illustrative render

An aerial view of a large home on a broad saddle: a timber-framed glass great-room gable at the centre, stone-and-board wings on each side and a covered breezeway to a small stone casita, with a gravel drive curving through sage and yellow wildflowers.
From above: the great room, both wings and the casita.
Two gabled cedar pavilions on a basalt stone base, joined by a glass entry link, with a stone stair climbing through yellow-flowering rabbitbrush and mist lying in the valleys behind.Illustrative render

Two cedar pavilions on a stone base, set into the slope of a shallow draw, with a glass link for the front door.

The corner where a basalt stone wall meets honey-coloured cedar board-and-batten, with a deep-set black window, a dark roof edge and yellow rabbitbrush at the base.

A home on a level bench under a clear summer sky: a tall four-pane glass gable in black cedar on the left, reflecting the hills, and a low stone wing with three deep-set windows on the right, among dry grasses and young aspens.Illustrative render

One tall glass gable on a bench above the draw: the living room gets the whole foothill, and the stone wing keeps the bedrooms quiet.

A double-height living and dining room: an oak stair with a black rail climbs the left wall to a landing across the back, a kitchen with a dark stone island sits beneath it, and an oak dining table under black pendants is on the right.
