Just as Moore tried to blur the line between old and new, he also worked to connect the inside and outside. Whereas most garage doors retract to the interior of the structure, here, the door opens out over the deck. There, it creates a roof over the patio, through which overhead lighting is diffused. He used the same locally salvaged pine for the flooring in the dining room and on the deck to further connect the two spaces.
