The genesis, development and life-long occupation of the McIntyre house,
built in 1972 as part of a multiple-dwelling subdivision, provides
possible answers to some very pressing contemporary design questions.
How might one live near the city and be respectful of nature? How might
efficiently built dwellings also be spacious and dense site occupation
still allow for privacy? This history is recounted through text
augmented by photographs and site diagrams, house sections and plans.
They reveal a modern architecture on the west coast that resulted from
an interplay of both the physicality of the land and a culturally imbued
landscape.
