"here is the idea of a modern house that opens itself to its surroundings."

The house sits on a 4 acre property and puts a premium on individual design over community.

The extension of interior space to the exteriors is a central tenet to the design, mindful of the limitations of the extreme climatic changes. Our interest goes beyond dissolving external barriers, it includes strategies for using space efficiently.

The bedroom wings are isolated from guests without them feeling that the house has been partitioned. The master bedroom at the 1st floor is connected to the landscape behind by a creative twist to the landscape.

The home has soaring day lit double height spaces that recall the luminous volumes of contemporary art galleries. State of the art technology and materials have been translated into appealing architecture. The home incorporates built in sun screens to minimize heat gain on the south and west facing facades.
