Open Concept Leads to Geometric Intrigue

With this home, our goal was to transmit the client’s design from sketchbook to foundation as effectively as possible. Logistically, our team was assigned the difficult task of accommodating a varying, multi-level roofline. We were able to meet this challenge by creating a cantilevered entryway with curved front facade without the use of steel.

The pinnacle of this design was the home’s breathtaking cornerless window, made possible thanks to the use of hollow structural section steel members.

Together with our talented creative partners, we were able to delight and inspire by bringing the outside in, creating a strong structure, and providing restorative indoor spaces for the client.
