为了尊重这些自然环境，信号棚被设想为一个小房子，它提供了进入室外的通道，并且在这样做的过程中所造成的干扰是最小的。由于其基础，该结构是建立在一系列的桥墩基础上。漆黑的雨幕帮助它退到周围山林的阴影中。此外，小屋的“烧焦”的外部参考了被烧毁的树木在现场发现，并回顾过去使用信号山作为一个烟雾信号点的内兹珀斯部落。

In an effort to respect these natural surroundings, the Signal Shed was conceived as a small home, which provides access to the outdoors and causes minimal disturbance in doing so. For its foundation, the structure was built on a series of pier footings. The blackened rain screen cladding helps it recede into the shadows of the surrounding mountains and trees. Also, the shed’s ‘charcoaled’ exterior references the burned trees found onsite and recalls the past use of Signal Mountain as a smoke signal point for the Nez Perce tribe.

这座山(以击败约瑟夫酋长霍华德将军的名字改名)是从信号棚的主要视野的背景。一个大的滑动门打开了内部的空间，可以看到和户外，所以一个人仍然觉得他们在露营时，在里面。一个单独的舱口窗口打开，框架内的瓦洛瓦湖有轨电车和信号山。窗户，面对森林在其他三个高度，是由同样的板条包裹外部。因此，信号棚可以关闭和完全安全时，离开了很长一段时间。在室内，一个阁楼，简单的木炉，厨房柜台和折叠式餐桌为乡村家庭生活提供了足够的装备。到了晚上，室内的灯光从雪松石板后面照来，形成一系列垂直的条状物。

This mountain (which has been renamed after Gen. Howard who defeated Chief Joseph) is a backdrop for the primary view from the Signal Shed. A large sliding door opens the interior space to the view and outdoors so one still feels like they’re camping while inside. A single hatch window opens to frame a view of the Wallowa Lake Tramway and Signal Mountain. Windows, which face the forest on the other three elevations, are shuttered by the same slats that wrap the exterior. Thus, The Signal Shed can be closed and fully secured when left for long stretches of time. Inside, a loft, simple wood stove, kitchen counter and collapsible dining room table provide adequate accoutrements for rustic domestic living. At night, the interior light glows from behind the cedar slats as a series of vertical slivers.

为了限制该项目对环境的影响和成本，原结构由业主/设计师使用回收窗和硬件和再生墙板建造，没有传统的公用设施连接。所有材料都是从主干道运来的，发电机提供电力。西部的红雪松包层来源于威拉米纳便携式锯木厂，这是一家专门从事砍伐和废弃树木回收的便携式锯木厂公司。窗户、门窗和谷仓门五金都是在波特兰的重建中心购买的。室内工程和地板来自宜家。所有其他木材都是通过当地分销商提供给在沃洛瓦和联合县发现的当地磨坊的。

To limit the project’s environmental impact and cost the original structure was built by the owner/designer using recycled windows and hardware and reclaimed siding and has no traditional utility connections. All materials were carried in from the main road and with a generator providing electricity. The western red cedar cladding was sourced to Willamina Portable Saw Mill, a portable saw mill company specializing in reclamation of fallen and discarded trees. The windows, door and barn door hardware were purchased at the Rebuilding Center in Portland. Interior casework and flooring is from IKEA. All other wood was sourced to local mills found in Wallowa and Union County through local distributors.
