Personal Drawing

Below is my very rough personal drawing of the Loblolly House


I would like to draw attention to the timber piles that elevate the home off of the ground. These piles serve multiple functions to the building. The timber piles protect the home from flooding due to its close proximity to the shore of Taylors Island. Not only that, but they also alleviate some of the environmental impact of the home by lifting it off of the ground. The piles were driven into the ground at diverse angles to mimic the natural form of the forest.
