The facade of the house is made up of a wood grid with windows and perforated metal panels. These metal panels allow for a vertical garden to be grown over time.

Before reaching the interior of the house, you are greeted by a front courtyard that opens to the sky.

Around the corner from the media room and looking into the home from the front door, are small steps that lead to the main living and dining area. A custom wood counter that meets the top of the steps is connected to the countertop on the kitchen island.

At the other end of the island is a small dining area with another wood counter. Against one wall there’s a wood bench with cushions, and against the other is a wall full of white kitchen cabinets, as well as the oven and stove. A mirrored backsplash helps to reflect light in the room and make it appear larger.

Off to the side of the living room is a small pond at the end of the swimming pool. In these photos you can see how the space above the pool is partially open to the sky and allows sunlight to filter through.
