Sawtooth is a minimalist residence located in Lake Oswego, Oregon designed by Waechter Architecture. WA’s solution for each unit was to create one generously volumed living space with precisely one east-facing view window and one ambient light window. In this way, each unit maintains privacy, focuses its attention on the framed river / mountain view and is generously day-lit by a high clerestory window.  A sawtooth roof form was used to achieve this configuration.
