Plains, Tennessee. It is comprised of 1,946 heated square
feet in the cabin, with sleeping and storage lofts of 302
square feet. There is a detached garage of 327 square

The design is a modern interpretation of a mountain fishing
cottage. It is clad in dark stained cedar siding and has gray
metal roofs that combine steep and moderate pitches. The
terraces to the river, foundations, fireplace and exterior
columns are clad in mountain stone. Walkways are scored
concrete. Windows are by Marvin, clad in architectural
bronze aluminum to the exterior with wood frames to
the interior. The landscaping consists of plant species
indigenous to the river’s edge.
