Moab, Utah
Completed 2002
1,180 sq. ft.

The designers' home, this strawbale nestles into a north facing hillside. With views of several power lines to the south, and a Nature Conservancy wetlands to the north, balancing our strong solar interest with the natural view was a challenge. We splurged on north facing views in the kitchen, where we spend most of our time, and created a terraced food garden (link) to the south, with fruit trees that will eventually block the utility lines.
