Incline Village, Nevada, USA
The Lake Tahoe Cabins by Ro|Rockett Design consist of three separate structures that navigate the challenging and intricate Crystal Bay shoreline, thoughtfully positioned to engage with the site’s natural complexities, each offering unique interactions with the Tahoe landscape and the lakefront below.
The individual structures are linked by a glazed bridge whose footprint kinks precisely around a mass of pre-historic Sierra granite.
The unique arrangement of cabins creates recreational alcoves before approaching the lake.
The Lake Tahoe Cabins has been awarded a 2023 American Architecture Award from The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies.
On the second level, the great room and kitchen expand the entire east-facing facade.
Adjacent, snuggled against the hillside, an intimate deck and lawn offer refuge from the cabin’s expansive entertainment area.
On the lake-facing side, the great room spills into an equally grand balcony with breathtaking views.
At the lowest level, a fire pit, oversized hot tub, and staircase lead to a pier that extends beyond the water’s edge.
