FOUR POINT DESIGN BUILD INC
Selected as one of four designers to the prestigious DXV Design Panel to design a space for their 2018-2020 national ad campaign || Inspired by 21st Century black & white architectural/interior photography, in collaboration with DXV, we created a healing space where light and shadow could dance throughout the day and night to reveal stunning shapes and shadows. With retractable clear skylights and frame-less windows that slice through strong architectural planes, a seemingly static white space becomes a dramatic yet serene hypnotic playground; igniting a new relationship with the sun and moon each day by harnessing their energy and color story. Seamlessly installed earthy toned teak reclaimed plank floors provide a durable grounded flow from bath to shower to lounge. The juxtaposition of vertical and horizontal layers of neutral lines, bold shapes and organic materials, inspires a relaxing, exciting, restorative daily destination.

With this client who has been passionate about plants all his life, there was naturally a close collaboration and a lot of input from him. Upon closer inspection you'd find some very exceptional plants that are sort of experimental but "all worth the try" in Gordon's eyes. And he is right! I relished the opportunity to use Star Magnolia stellata, Redbud Cercis 'Avondale' and 'Silver Cloud', Arabian Lilac 'Grand Duke of Tuscany', Royal Bromeliad Vriesea imperialis, also many unusual bulbs such as Scilla.
Besides structure providing shrubs and trees (Tecoma, existing Indian Hawthorne with beautiful structures, Sweet Pea Bush, Golden Breath of Heaven, Ilex, Ginkgo, Bronze Loquat etc.) you'll see here also my favorite perennials, succulents and grasses, all as low care and undemanding as well as low-water as possible, to keep the landscape colorful and interesting year round.
One of the highlights of this garden are the dry stream beds, bird bath and garden bench that we added. Built originally by himself and his wife, the dry stream beds were overgrown, mostly hidden by plant debris, or half rolling down hill. We had fun selecting a mixed collection of colorful and richly textured boulders of various sizes over, and with the input from 7 team members: Gordon, me, the contractor, the supervisor and three workers, we re-created the stream beds, making sure that anchor stones on the sides were well embedded in the slope, and that stone shelves and “top dressing” with smaller pebbles would add to the visual interest. Now these beds form very pleasing architectural features that look like they have always been there.
We were all surprised how quickly all plants adapted to the site and started growing and putting out bloom. Now the old birdbath, a traditional white thing with dove figurines resting on the scalloped bowl, looked out of place, and I suggested to replace it with a stone bowl. And that part of the garden just called for a bench under the Macademia nut tree, to observe the birds and contemplate the whole creation. Only stone would do, but not any stone! Gordon picked a Basalt boulder that was naturally bowl shaped. It’s so heavy that it took 8 men to heave it into place! The Basalt bench was not much lighter, and together they make a very inviting scene. This job should last for a while.

By creating areas within areas, Weiss makes the most of the 1500 square loft. A vintage Turkish rug defines the seating area and creates a comfortable spot for relaxing or entertaining, something Weiss enjoys quite a bit. The series of self portraits, painted over a twenty-year period, create a contemplative backdrop with colors that set the tone for the space.

Building a house without the headaches – it is not only possible, but if you are contemplating new construction you should be aware of this exciting alternative to traditional stick-built construction. It is NOT modular construction, but the precision building of frame and house in panelized form in a controlled factory environment.
Your custom design can be engineered for construction by this amazing new process. All of the framing, utilities and underskinning take place in a factory. The panels are delivered on trucks and assembled on site. You miss all of the slow and awkward part and can concentrate on finishes and colors. Building a house can be fun again.
I’ll be honest with you. If you are confident, you can take these companies a napkin sketch and their engineering department can turn out a very nice final product. You can take them complete architectural drawings – resulting in some redundancy in the design process. What I can do is give you a design process that smoothes the transition.
I will work with you to refine a basic concept into a buildable solution. You essentially have more control over the design process, but the final engineering is performed specifically for the automated process. The result is a precision framed house that is unthinkable in traditional building methodology.
Of course, this process lets you create your dream house in a more cost-effective manner. The biggest offender in cost overruns is tamed by factory construction of the unseen part of your home. Roofing, siding and interior finishes are added on site. You pay for the design services you need. Construction costs are controlled and your finished home is built to an unprecedented standard.
In the end, you will likely save yourself both money and headaches.

smaller and more homogenous stones help keep the amount of mortar seen down. it would be nice to see less though. maybe a darker mortar? possibly consider only using for low walls - CCC
