Flag 200 | Pine Canyon, Flagstaff
This project represents one of our most distinctive collaborations with a repeat client. Set within the Pine Canyon development and defined by its mature Ponderosa pines, the design carefully threads the architecture through a sloping, wooded site. The composition of gables, monoslope roofs, and selective flat planes emerged in tandem with the material strategy, creating a cohesive architectural language from the earliest stages. Though newly constructed, the home reads as a layered, almost historical composition—an assemblage of elements that feel collected over time.
The material palette is central to that narrative. Much of the wood originates from Indonesia, including reclaimed teak and mahogany sourced from former sugar plantations, to***co and rice barns, aging bridges, and other decommissioned structures. Steel elements were similarly repurposed, drawn from retired ferry boats and incorporating weathered plate steel, rivets, and heavy anchor chains into expressive architectural features. These materials are grounded by board-formed concrete, stone, and expansive glazing, creating a balance between weight, texture, and transparency.
As the design evolved, the relationship between interior and exterior spaces became inseparable from the surrounding forest. Preserving and integrating the existing Ponderosas was a primary driver of the planning strategy, influencing the scale, orientation, and flow of the home. The trees provide structure, filtered light, and seasonal protection, shaping both experience and form. The result is a residence that feels embedded in its environment rather than imposed upon it.
This project was made possible through a strong collaboration with the client, Jason, whose commitment and resourcefulness were instrumental—particularly in sourcing the reclaimed materials that define the home’s character.
