"Remotely accessed via a winding former stagecoach road north-east of Healdsburg, California, the 2019 Kincade Fire destroyed the original off-grid house. The pioneering resourcefulness of the clients allowed them to embrace an alternative, landscape-driven lifestyle that follows the spirit of the nearby original historic Pine Flat community a boomtown that flourished in the Mayacamas Mountains during the quicksilver and mercury rush in the 1870s."
Following the 2019 Kincade Fire's destruction of an original off-grid house, Faulkner Architects designed a 4,049 square foot replacement residence northeast of Healdsburg, California. The project embraces a landscape-driven lifestyle philosophy inspired by the nearby historic Pine Flat community, a 1870s boomtown that emerged during the quicksilver and mercury mining rush in the Mayacamas Mountains. The clients' resourcefulness enabled them to adopt an alternative approach to rebuilding. The completed 2025 project involved collaboration among multiple specialized consultants and contractors, utilizing premium manufacturers including Dornbracht, SubZero, Wolf, and Duravit for finishes and systems.
