The guest house and main house support living roofs that cool the buildings, support habitat, and increase biodiversity as well as significantly reduce storm water runoff and protect the vital buffer zone just feet away. The design minimizes the delineation between the roof structure and the surrounding environment, creating a harmonized view of the marshland.
