From the entry, one glides under the canopy of the Himalayan pine before reaching the front door. A series of curved planes, stacked & slid from each other hugs the canopy of an existing Himalayan pine tree. Careful window placement & textural treatment engage with the context.

On an unusual & tricky shaped site, optimistic northern exposure was captured. The circulation core of this home becomes a feature of double volume, natural light and viewing moments of adjacent spaces. Of special note is the pool viewed from the basement rumpus. A balanced composition of natural tones and detailing was considered.

A relaxed, beachy and modernist feel family home.
