Woodside Dry Creek

Woodside Dry Creek

These two structures sit perched over one of two tributary dry creek beds that converge upon and border the site and are appurtenant to an existing residence. Upon entering the site these two buildings greet the visitor with architectural aesthetic which follows the exposed Douglas Fir rafter theme used in the main residence located further along the entrance drive.
