The open-plan kitchen, dining, and living areas are washed in sunlight that streams in through floor-to-ceiling windows and doors.

A see-through entry hall joins the living areas with a bedroom wing.

Exposing structural materials as finish materials created valuable cost savings. The structural concrete floors and exposed second floor framing strengthen the overall aesthetic, while eliminating the need for drywall or additional flooring.

Wedged with precision between the existing garage and pool, the narrow new structure is only 13 feet wide.
