The home
A contemporary home set on the canyon's edge — and the home BUILD Magazine chose to tour with Chris.
Some sites ask for restraint. This one asked us to open the home to the canyon and let the landscape do the talking.
Perched above the Deschutes River canyon, this contemporary residence was designed to live with its view — clean lines, generous glass, and a quiet material palette that keeps the eye moving outward to the rim and the water beyond.
It's the kind of site that rewards a builder who plans carefully and solves problems on the fly, from siting on the canyon edge to detailing the indoor-outdoor transitions that make a home like this feel effortless. The result drew national attention: BUILD Magazine featured it as a Homes of BUILD tour, walking the finished home with owner Chris Christianson.
