Cedar Bluff
http://www.svdesign.com

Perched atop a bluff overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, this new residence adds a modern twist to the classic Shingle Style. The house is anchored to the land by stone retaining walls made entirely of granite taken from the site during construction. Clad almost entirely in cedar shingles, the house will weather to a classic grey.

I don't like the way there is a space between the stairs & retaining wall...how do we prevent that since they won't be the same material?
