The family tree house

Article Abstract:

Architect Bob Hull designed a 1,400-foot weekend home for Tim and Kath Roberts that sits on a shelf of a cliff overlooking Puget Sound. Its most noticeable feature, a canopy that drains rainwater away from the house, is supported by struts that mimic the surrounding madrona trees.
