Love how this Alaskan house responds with elegance and sensitivity to its environment - from the limited building footprint (the house is cantilevered from a small basement), the balance of large and small spaces for heat control, the careful capture of year-round sunlight, as well as solar-panels for heating / water and the robustness of the metal exterior to deal with the harsh winter climate combined with a soft, tactile interior - a nest for the family.
