Four Green Gables ~ winner of the “Big Dog” award which is presented to the team that presents the best design for large dogs.
Almost as old as the act of building itself, the gable has become the quintessential roof form for “home” around the world. A gable roof’s triangular silhouette is not only delightfully symmetrical, but also serve the important purpose of shedding away rain efficiently. This entry features a cross-gabled roof set upon a sturdy platform with legs, a spacious wood-decked interior, and generous natural ventilation. It recalls the comforting shape of home and celebrates the craft of old-fashioned carpentry.
