The inspiration for this project stemmed from the homeowner's desire for a warm, cozy, and relaxed atmosphere—a private sanctuary where they could escape with their three children. Simultaneously, they wanted a seamless connection to the outdoors, facilitating effortless entertaining with friends and family.

One of the standout details in the home is the giant kitchen island, which serves as a focal point for gatherings and daily family activities. Additionally, the curved stairs with floor-to-ceiling balustrades and the unexpected cedar ceilings add a touch of uniqueness and character to the space.
