Hugh's Houseboat

Desolation Sound, Lancelot Inlet 1974-1978

Designed by Michael McNamara – Built by Hugh McDonald with a little help from his friends.

This is one of my all time favorite designs. Ferro-cement hull, timber framed super structure comprised of natural fir pole edge beams and four thin skinned hyperbolic paraboloid shells. A nod to Frei Otto.
