Case Study: Lake Tahoe Cabin

Incline Village’s three cabins dot a mountainside above Crystal Bay, an inlet of Lake Tahoe. For the client, the dark-stained buildings bring back fond memories of the lakeside cabin where he spent his childhood summers. For Ro | Rockett Design principals Jason Ro, AIA, and Zac Rockett, AIA, the project was an opportunity to create a one-of-a-kind spatial experience that brings the site’s geological features into focus. Linked by a glass bridge that skirts a giant boulder, the three gabled structures are an example of the inventive customizations that can occur when the land is allowed to take center stage.
