Defying Gravity: A Daring Cliffside Retreat with Jaw-Dropping Ocean Views

Discover the ultimate cliffside retreat on Bowen Island, where bold cantilever architecture meets breathtaking ocean views. Suspended 150 feet above the rugged landscape, this 3,000 sq ft masterpiece blurs the line between indoors and out with expansive floor-to-ceiling European sliding windows, offering panoramic views of the coastline, mountains, and surrounding forest.

In this video, we explore how the architects overcame the challenges of building on a steep cliffside to create a home that feels like it’s floating above the landscape. From frameless glass pocket doors that connect directly to nature to the dramatic cantilever that extends over the edge, every design choice emphasizes the beauty of the site.

Highlights of this Architectural Marvel:
Gravity-defying cantilever structure
Triple-glazed sliding windows with panoramic views
Frameless glass pocket doors opening to the ocean breeze
Slate-clad exterior that harmonizes with the natural surroundings
Elevated decks offering uninterrupted coastal views

Experience the blend of bold design, engineering ingenuity, and serene natural beauty that makes this cliffside retreat truly one-of-a-kind.
