The Brief
The client collects horizons: desert, sea, skyline. The house had to frame them without becoming a glass box that surrenders to the afternoon sun.
The Concept
Stacked horizontal slabs slide past each other to create deep, shaded terraces. Every principal room borrows its width from the landscape, with floor-to-ceiling glazing recessed behind generous overhangs.
Materials & Light
Board-formed concrete, warm timber soffits, dark structural steel and continuous stone floors that run from interior to terrace.
The Outcome
Developed with a full cinematic flythrough, letting the client walk the house at golden hour a year before it exists.
