CHALLENGE
Create a large custom residence that blends Mediterranean warmth with contemporary openness while supporting both large-scale entertaining and private retreat. The design needed to feel timeless, cohesive, and livable without becoming overly formal or stylistic.
SOLUTION
The home is organized around proportion, materiality, and flow to balance public and private life. Stucco walls, natural stone accents, and tile roofing establish a Mediterranean foundation, while clean massing and generous glazing introduce modern clarity. The kitchen anchors the plan as the social heart of the home, connecting seamlessly to formal and informal living spaces. Large openings extend these areas to covered terraces, reinforcing indoor–outdoor living. Private suites are carefully detailed with millwork and ceiling treatments to provide comfort and intimacy. The result is an elegant yet approachable residence that supports daily living, entertaining, and long-term legacy. The architecture feels rooted and enduring while remaining open, light-filled, and deeply personal.
