The project

Assembly Architecture + Build designed this home on a narrow infill lot in west Asheville. Set back from the street, it gathers family life around a private rear courtyard with a hot tub and fountain.

The living room projects out on steel to feel like a treehouse while sheltering an outdoor dining area, and the main suite sits above a screen porch. A double-height atrium at the entrance brings in daylight and works as a passive cooling tower. It was completed in 2022.
