Built on more than 70 drilled concrete piers and grade beams, the house terraces down the hill with its main entry at the top level, living floors in the middle level and bedrooms on the lower floor away from the road and among the trees. A large concrete terrace with a fire and waterfall feature over thebedrooms provides useable outdoor space for relaxing and entertaining. The driveway is an open steel grate that floats over the hillside, preserving the site’s natural watershed while reducing the required grading and retaining walls. |
