Architectural approach

  • Fractured Transparency: Using the window mullions to break the view into geometric segments rather than one large pane.
  • White Box Volume: Painting the soaring ceiling white to bounce light and prevent the space from feeling cramped.
  • Textural Layering: Combining smooth drywall with rough wood and soft fabrics.
  • Indoor-Outdoor Flow: Direct access to the deck via a glass-paneled side door.
  • Biophilic Geometry: Echoing the triangular shape of the fir trees outside with the window structure inside.
