There are also the extended canopy-like cantilevered eaves for protecting the outdoor seating area from the sun. For paying tribute to the past of this site, which was utilized as the Forestry Service test station for testing of Eucalyptus trees in the 1910s and 1920s, the architects reused many parts of the original 1940s cabin that was once an occupied property.

The interior of the home is inspired by nature and also includes mixes of French oak and massangis gray limestone used for making the floors, weathered brass, etc. Furthermore, the warm palette offers a neutral background for showcasing clients’ top-notch art collection. To add more oomph to the airy home’s interior, the architects also installed creative ceiling lights that overhang from the kitchen and dining room. Plus, the opposite wall features huge open doors to expose the interior space to the woodsy place outside.
