The Sonoma County home of Lars Richardson and Laila Carlsen is the result of a long-running collaboration with architect Casper Mork-Ulnes. A 713-square-foot indoor-outdoor Shotcrete dining pavilion dubbed the Amoeba provides a loose counterpoint to the more rigid barn structure behind it.

The fireplace within the original brick surround roots the interiors to its site and its heritage. A giant sliding door leads to a deck, flush with the interior floor. Round skylights and a round ceiling light relate this space to the kitchen, with its oculus and amoeba-shaped island.

With a number of environment-centric structures on the three-acre property, this home in Sebastopol, California, is a labor of love spanning a decade. The latest addition is the 713-square-foot, indoor/outdoor Shotcrete dining pavilion dubbed the Amoeba. Cut-outs in the concrete slab floor create space for an indoor jungle of taro, fig trees, bird-of-paradise, and bamboo; a sub-surface drain connected to a perforated underground pipe slowly filters out excess moisture to the groundwater.
