Riverfold House: A Riverside Family Home Designed in Harmony With Oregon's Landscape
By
Erin Miller
Summary
Riverfold House, designed by Hacker Architects in Central Oregon, is a family home situated on a basalt outcrop beside a river. The home's long, linear layout follows the movement of nearby rapids, and its design — from the sculptural roofline to the natural material palette — responds to the surrounding landscape. The home balances privacy from the public river's edge with ever-changing views of water, sky, and land.
