Hill House is a dynamic interpretation of the action of ascending a steep hill by switch back. The form of the house, conceived while hiking in Portland's Forest Park, leverages the boundaries set by building code, site constraints, a tight budget, and the client's program which includes a two bedroom mother-in-law apartment. As the house climbs the hill, the rear of the house is set on a series of terraces while the front facade weaves side to side to reveal a different view of Portland and Vancouver from each floor.
