The Story

Make it show, lots of glass, and privacy - at one of the most exposed corner lots of the city: that’s what our clients asked us to work with.

Problems have solutions. That’s what makes them problems. So, we decided to hoist the entire living space and bedroom level up on stilts onto the second floor. We followed it up with an art piece of a stair to get them there.

We returned twice for our clients. Once to help with the design of the landscape and a second time for designing a back yard pavilion. Both times we tried to compliment the original design and even to enhance it.
