Located on a large plot, with a gently sloped landscape, the project is a great example of modern architecture.
The basic concept draws on making connections between the interior and exterior from most angles and on all the floors of the house.
The striking volume stands out with the horizontal lines of the balconies and terraces, large glazed surfaces, and the central entry space.
The foyer is a large open-to-above atrium containing the staircase. It is the heart of the house, making horizontal and vertical connections. More than simply functional, it heightens the view by keeping the space uninterruptedly dual aspect from the back to the front of the house.
A great design has an all-around approach. In this case, the back of the house is equally beautiful in design as the front of the house.
An extra feature is the indoor pool with shower and sauna, which opens onto the back porch and courtyard.
