The “Buck Mountain” house, designed by US architectures Indigo – Architecture and Interiors, is located on Orcas Island, an island off the shore of Washington State, USA.
The “Buck Mountain” house rises among a vast green carpet, in the midst of the Orcas Island forest.The living room was designed to be a wide and convertible area, whose glass walls fully open giving way to a wonderful view that mixes the inside with the outside.
Viroc Grey, used in the “Buck Mountain” house to clad the walls, pavements and exterior facades, was chosen to complement the other materials used: spruce and cedar from the local forest, and iron.Viroc “creates a soothing and monolithic effect.(...) Cement-wood panels need some finishing time, Viroc, in its natural state, has a subtle depth of colour and texture, which looks like concrete.”, claimed the architects from Indigo.
The architects from Indigo – Architecture & Interiors also mentioned that “Viroc is incredibly long-lasting (…) and low-maintenance, which makes it easy to care and use for the owners.”
