A pergola and terrace extend naturally from the main house, designed by architect Bernard Perreault. The residents use the ample outdoor space for dining and relaxing with their children. Back-to-back banquettes anchor the area. The pendants are from Homier Luminaire.
Two Harry Bertoia-designed chairs sit on the main third story deck, which includes a hidden green roof that absorbs rainwater, cools the upper floors, and purifies the air. “It’s a nice little oasis on the roof, with plants that bloom at different times of year. The owners love spending time up there,” Dubbeldam says.
Sliding doors on either side of the living room and along the kitchen open all the way, allowing the breeze from the canyon to spin right through the house.
The deck off the front is also minimally furnished with elegant lines of beach rock and two Leaf chairs by Arper.
One major directive was to “honor the tree,” referring to a particular 85-year-old cottonwood on the property. Photo by: Kirk Gittings
