In this new home at the foot of the Cashmere hills, evidence of Modernism abounds: the asymmetrical layout, an emphasis on functionalism, the use of contemporary materials and building systems, and in the simple geometric forms throughout.
Built in 2024, the house has a series of circular holes of different sizes cut into the veranda to allow light to penetrate and to soften the sharp lines of the concrete and stone of the building. This theme is extended into the landscaping where circular paving stones and sensitive planting provide a Japanese influence.
