Quik- House

Kalkin's modestly-sized, 1,920-square-foot Quik House sits on top of a hill in the middle of three wooded acres. The first surprise was that such an alien, industrial form can look natural in a rural setting, its rust-colored exterior telegraphing “color of nature” as strongly as the shape says “man-made object.”  This will not be enough to calm hard-core traditionalists, but every visitor, regardless of aesthetic disposition, will find the main living area immensely appealing.
