matt black steel and bronze screen which surrounds the staircase
leading up to the main living level. The ground floor comprises a
Bulthaup kitchen, dining area and a formal lounge area with sliding
pocket doors opening up to reveal both the front and back views
of the house so that each space can open and connect with the
adjoining areas. Out the front, the large sliding doors open onto lush
landscaping, creating a Zen garden feel, which surrounds an infinity
pool and Jacuzzi.
Next to the pool is the sunken entertainment area. Above this, a
floating concrete box provides a neat overhang for shade protection,
while incorporating a sky light to sculpt the natural light. The same
floor finishes that are used within the living area, are used in the
outdoor space to accentuate the indoor-outdoor feel. On this level
there is also an informal lounge and bar area, a study as well as a fully
equipped gym.
