the living area, an area that also hosts the garage and a guest room,
"the only windowless room in the house, the powder room, reads as a
tunnel: arched, full-length mirrors indefinitely reflect the brass subway
tracks set in the floor, creating a dramatic trompe l'oeil tunnel effect,"

running the length of both sides of the home are 10-foot overhangs
creating carved-out spaces where steel and wood mix.

encapsulates CLB Architects' vision: "Each endeavor is guided with
the firm's philosophy in mind—inspired by place." For the team, "the
power of landscape, the quality of light and the simple honesty of
vernacular architecture influence the work"—always.
