Sunset Point is a cluster of
homes overlooking Howe
Sound not too far from
Horseshoe Bay. Among
them is the home of Stephen
Clark and Diana Millen.
Stephen is an artist and
teacher who likes to design
houses.

istands. It also offered
privacy and a country feeling
and is still quite close to the
city..

A very unusual house, it
has sloping walls, lots of
open space, a glass-enclosed
staircase, a “floating”
bedroom, and many other
interesting features.

It took four months to
design and 3% years to build
it, Stephen doing much of
the work himself, with Diana
assisting. The extensive use
of brick inside necessitated
400 trips from the road.
Although that was quite a
task, the building of the
concrete forms for the
foundation was a “form-
workers” nightmare,” as
Stephen put it. This was due
to the rocky even ground
and the curved walls.

One _ interesting § con-
struction feature was the
building of double walls. In
fact, the walls are about one
foot thick, resulting in great
heat retention. In addition,
the heat situation is aided by

The “floating” bedroom
gives that feeling because it
has windows on three sides,
is on the second floor, and
one can look down and
around. There are three
bedrooms in total.

At the entranceway to the
house, there ts a unique art
gallery more or less separate
from the rest of the house.

A few steps from the main
-house is Stephen's studio
which is about 1,000 sq.ft.
and is done in a_ similar
architectural style.
