Johnston Marklee and Associates have designed the Hill House, which aims to optimize space and stay green and environmentally friendly. The unique architecture of the building allows it to perch on rolling hills and on sharp slopes. The design is aimed at preserving the beauty and ecology of the hills in California and the house is spacious inside though it takes up very little space.

The house looks strange and elegant, both at the same time. The house has glass doors and many skylight openings. The design is as environmental friendly as it can get and the architects have used concrete, steel, and timber to build this elegant house. If only these houses could look just as good if they were allowed to be built in Manhattan, it would have been so beautiful.

However, the hills can’t be brought to the middle of a city and hence, the design is just apt for a place like the hills in the country. Living in a house like this must be an enviable situation, which every city dweller would crave for. Marklee and Associates have proven what it is like to have a talent for building houses.
