Shadowboxx is a modern residence on Lopez Island in North America, near Washington. Created by Olson Kundig Architects in 2009, the project is more than an ordinary house of wood and steel. It is a dynamic structure that can adapt to changing climate conditions.

Sustainable construction is not just a trend. More and more architects are trying to offer an alternative to city living. This innovative wooden house by Olson Kundig Architects forms a harmonious whole with the landscape and offers a magnificent view of the Olympic Mountains in the distance. Because the location is exposed to cool, dry winds from the sea, a flexible yet protective design was needed.
