BEST PRIVATE HOUSE
THE ROCK, CANADA , BY GORT SCOTT
Perched on a distinctive outcrop above Alta Lake in the Canadian ski resort of Whistler, this eyrie of a mountain retreat makes the most of the surrounding views. Inspired by a Frank Lloyd Wright quote – ‘No house should ever be on a hill [...]. It should be of the hill. Belonging to it’ – the London-based practice Gort Scott designed a contemporary family home rising from a series of landscaped levels cut into and built out of the mountainside. Comprising six bedrooms, a cinema room, gym, wine room, pool and guest house, the design reflects the client’s deep appreciation of the site’s natural beauty, explored through sketching during different weather conditions and times of day. Entering the house continues the feeling of passing through the landscape. ‘This journey to the crest of the rock, with its shifting horizons, has been a key driver in the layout and design. Although we are placing a significant building on the site, our aim throughout has been to retain this experience when walking to and through the house,’ say the architects. gortscott.com
