Divine House is a modern single-story wooden house located in Springfield, Oregon, designed in 2021 by Landry Smith Architect.

Description
The Divine House is located outside of Eugene, Oregon and overlooks a dramatic bend along the McKenzie River. The house has a simple rectangular footprint and a gable roof with deep overhangs. It is directly organized down the centerline of the plan below the ridge. The northern half contains the smaller, more cellular programs ? the carport, entry, guest area, bathroom, and primary bedroom. The southern half is entirely open and includes the living and dining areas, kitchen, and adjoining covered deck. The width of the rooms and the generous depth of the overhangs was based on the maximum length of local Douglas fir structural members. The spaces of the house are defined using a series of solid-reading volumes, which allow for multiple routes and notably free movement throughout the interior. Contained within this highly articulated poche are storage areas for clothing and household items, mechanical spaces, as well as the laundry area and bath. The positioning of these volumes reinforces the organization along the ridgeline and establishes the distinct spatial character of the two halves of the plan. Sightlines were developed to provide a range of views both within and through the house and give an immediacy to the grounds without undercutting desired privacy (to the extent that the doors are largely rendered redundant)...
