This modern luxury waterfront home exemplifies a magnificent integration of architecture into its natural setting. The façade showcases a thoughtful combination of materials – warm cedar wood with horizontal panel arrangement, textured concrete walls, and extensive glass surfaces that create a sense of transparency and lightness.
Compositionally, the façade is divided into several volumes of varying heights, where the upper level clad in wood seems to float above the concrete base below. Particularly expressive is the cantilevered portion of the second floor with its metal balustrade, projecting toward the water and creating a sheltered terrace underneath. Large sliding glass doors on the ground floor blur the boundary between interior and exterior, opening up to the stunning waterfront view.
The architect masterfully employed overhanging eaves that not only give the building a characteristic horizontal emphasis but also provide protection from direct sunlight. The natural context is enhanced by the presence of a sprawling tree, which becomes part of the architectural composition and emphasizes the organic quality of the entire project. The minimalist landscape organization with concrete steps and platforms complements the contemporary appearance of this residence.
