Seven Sticks Lakehouse

Built on telephone poles and nicknamed "Seven Sticks" a client with an existing house at Smith Lake, Alabama wanted to add on to maximize the view. "The site was comprised of a gaggle of scrappy pines and I wanted to honor their displacement with seven telephone poles" says Dungan. Using only one solid wall for the kitchen, all other sides are glass for a tree-house effect. The design won an AIA Award in 2007.
