The house turns its back to the street with an entry set between two pavilions; one area for the owners while the second provides a self contained zone for guests. Visitors are led to the entry by a timber boardwalk and then follow a gently sweeping wall that gradually reveals that majestic view.
A generously scaled living/dining area opens to an expansive terrace taking full advantage of the outlook to the ocean. The metal clad lightweight structure is balanced by a solid masonry base, visually anchoring the building to the site.
