Standards

Porte Cochere

Formal protective cover for entrants, viewing deck for second floor, fabricated with huge vertical columns and glazed tiles.

Large Airlock Foyer

Allows chi to accumulate, then flow inside as the door opens. Plenty of space for guest coats, shoes and personal gear.

Heavy Timber Entry Door

Massive handcrafted door beckons, possessing qualities of welcome and denial. Large brass porthole provides passive observation.

Atrix: Atrium in the Matrix

At 2,000 square feet and 40 feet high, our Atrix, the heart of the home, is an ocean of air and space. Citrus trees, fragrant flowers, fir trees, water features and a family of nesting songbirds inhabit this oasis. See the play of light, shadow and color as figures pass quietly through, accessing meeting pods or perimeter rooms. Feel content with strengthened earth energy, coalescing and diffusing in timeless cycles. Second story mezzanines overlook the Atrix and other areas, increasing open space and atmosphere.

Vaulted Galleries, High Ceilings

Groined and coved.

Society of Bedrooms

All bedrooms are unique. Computer work stations are placed efficiently, with view windows to courtyard and garden. Ventilated dressing rooms are airy and comfortable. Complete bathrooms have water features, hot tubs, large showers and saunas. All rooms have fireplaces, decks and views.

Kitchen Network

Both inside and outside the dwelling, this is a masterful rendition of light commercial applications, perfectly adapted to singlefamily requirements.

The roasting or grilling of food should be efficiently vented to the outside, depending on personal preference. Our kitchens are designed to accommodate this situation.

There is a REAL pantry, constantly cool, for food storage and preserving; a large sink makes it easy to clean and process garden foods.

Thoughtful design is rarely given to the proper handling of recycle and refuse, yet it is a huge force when the systems are not set up properly. It is a force we devote much time and thought to, and is different for every family.

Our kitchens have nooks, bars, and a Wi-Fi area for coffee and tea. This area is well-lit by view windows and has a very comfortable feel to it.

Actual kitchen work is done in a stainless steel alcove with double sinks and a commercial dishwasher, invisible to non-working areas. Stoves and ovens are accessible to groups, inviting multiple players for cooking engagement.

Our kitchens have a sense of practicality; there is an informal opening to the outside garden, creating easy admission for harvesting or walks. Kitchen congregants will find roomy freedom throughout.
