Roxana works in the garden, which will be altered but remain an important part of the home.

Segmenting the home allows it to expand and contract depending on the number and needs of its occupants, who use it as a vacation residence.

The brick-and-glass residence accommodates limited mobility with a lift between levels and seamless thresholds between indoors and out.

Expansive glazing continues into the primary ensuite bath, which offers a double vanity, walk-in shower, oversized soaking tub, and direct outdoor access.

Renowned as the ultimate refuge in the City of Lights, the four-story Kenzo House is accessed via a private stone walkway, which opens up to koi pond and Japanese garden.
