The heart of the house

A generous, artfully organized open space contains the kitchen, dining, and living areas. The lack of continuous walls creates a feeling of expansiveness. Changes in details designate functions for each space.

A crushed-marble and stainless steel chandelier adds a subtle touch of glamour, while adjustable downlights provide an overall glow.

Overhead, woven strips of reclaimed redwood define the dining area and visually connect to the kitchen. Folding glass panels give diners a view of the landscape and open to the screened porch and rear sun terrace.
