The Lantern
The Koan Project holds a special place in my artistic journey. From its inception during the prefab phase to its ongoing evolution, documenting this structure has been both a delight and a challenge. Capturing its transformation from bare metal to architectural elegance has been a true testament to the beauty of the creative process. The Koan is more than just a building; it's a space designed to embrace nature's splendor and invite guests into an intimate dining experience. With its unique design, it seamlessly integrates indoor and outdoor spaces, allowing nature to become an integral part of the setting. The photos below depict the predetermined destination for the structure, and I eagerly anticipate photographing its completed design in the summer of 2024. Join me as I continue to explore and document the captivating journey of The Koan at Ruby Springs Lodge MT, where light, landscape, and architectural innovation converge.
