solid wood leads to the main level where a glass facade is
clad with an array of aluminum louvers, providing a sense of
indoor/outdoor openness throughout the great room — which
comprises an open kitchen and dining area — as well as its
auxiliary spaces. Wrapped in white stucco, the top level — with
cool gray wood flooring to delimitate the private areas of the
home — includes the main suite and a perpendicular wing with
two additional bedrooms and their bathrooms.
Floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding doors let an abundance
of natural light in while opening the living room up to the deck
and swimming pool outside, where the use of terrazzo flooring
creates visual continuity.
"An abstract sculpture by Guy Dill is enclosed within an exte-
rior courtyard adjacent to the entry procession," describe the
architects. "The sculpture garden narrows to form a 3-foot-
wide landscaped alcove that traverses the living spaces before
intersecting with the spacious backyard. And at the edge of the
living room, a melaleuca tree in an open-top glass case extends
upwards through a void in the roof."
