Designing the Connection to Nature
All of the gestures we do to connect nature are layered. The materials that are inside and outside, how you move through the home, and details to remind you of the intrinsic beauty of nature. Architecture should honor its surroundings; we are there to make a quiet gesture to help celebrate what’s always been there for us.
Designing Outdoor Spaces with the Home
The site is selected—something connects with you. This will be your home. Some sites are vast, others tight. Golf course views, woodland ravines, jagged peaks and diaphanous blue water lines bring timeless, authentic wonder and art. From the first schematic sketch, the home’s form is used to bring the site into the home. Just as a sculptor shapes their art, as architects we sculpt space. And as we build the home, we simultaneously create the outdoor living spaces.
Connecting Site and Home
Our job is to maintain the beauty that is found, whether it be a lake or a wooded view, and make sure that it is part of the everyday life.
Choreographing the Movement that Shapes a Home
Homes are more than a collection of rooms or staged moments; they have repeated paths of movement—from bedroom to kitchen or garage to living room—that guide the way a person lives in the space.
Designing a Connection to Nature in Modern Architecture
Nature’s beauty is timeless. Serene. Whether it’s the change of seasons or the shift of dappled morning light to evening’s long shadows, nature’s art fills our senses. We design homes that bring its intrinsic beauty into your daily life.
