Lake Huron Home to a Floating House by Michael Meredith of MOS Architects
Jessica Marcel — March 29, 2010 — Art & Design
MOS Architects' Michael Meredith designed this home that floats serenely on Lake Huron. The home is a summer vacation spot for its family, though I can't say I'd mind staying here all year. The beautiful scenery is in full view from this floating house. A floating house is a great way to fully enjoy a lakefront property.
The floating house features lots of natural wood surfaces and a simplified home design.
Implications - Looking through a gallery of this house will either torture or inspire you. Personally, it's given me a concrete goal -- to one do own (...or rent) a home half as beautiful.
