Architect Obie Bowman employed the site-repair approach to siting this contemporary retirement home: The best spots on the site are reserved for picnicking and outdoor living, while the house and back porch nestle the hillside. A multi-purpose portal serves as garage, shed and workshop and includes a signature Bowman element overhead: a take-notice log lintel. It's visitors' first clue that the path to the Weber house leads to good design.
