This project was designed, and developed by Rhodes Architecture + Light while Josh Meharry was a team member.
After seeing this roof design the clients dubbed their new house “Garuda” after the Hindu Demi-God with wings so large they darkened the sky, and the name stuck. These clients were a couple who were wanting a house for them and their dogs that could also house each of their parents who came often to visit them from India for prolonged stays. They wanted to have plenty of common space for everyone to spend time together as well as a sense of privacy between each of the three bedroom suites.
The resulting design consists of two lower “plinths”, each one housing one of the parent’s ensuite bedrooms which open onto private exterior patios in the rear yard. The upper level that bridges over and cantilevers beyond the lower plinths contains the communal living spaces and the couple’s bedroom suite, while the tops of the lower plinths then become roof decks for the spaces above. The void between the lower plinths serves as the primary entrance, and this space opens into a double height space with skylights that draw you up and make you feel connected to the upper living spaces despite the level change. Other unique spaces and elements were integrated into the design at the client’s request such as a Puja (prayer) room that opened into a screened exterior landscape area with a small fountain, as well as a rock climbing wall in the interior entrance atrium. The garage was tucked below and accessed from the side to keep the doors largely out of view, and a large movie room was also integrated on the lowest level.
The clients requested natural and warm materials, which lead to exposing the concrete floors throughout the interior and the use of corten rusting steel panels on the exterior of the lower plinths and wood soffits at the roof and underside of the upper floor.

This modern marvel measures 15’0” x 40’0”, and has a 7’0” x 7’0” inside the pool structure. Adjacent to the hot tub is a sunshelf measuring 180 square feet. The pool depth is 3’6” to 5’0” to 4’0”. Colored LED lighting is featured in both the pool and hot tub. The pool coping and decking is Valders Limestone. One long edge of the pool features a 40’0” infinity edge feature with ceramic tile throughout the upper, lower and face levels of the feature. The lower basin is equipped with colored LED lights to provide ambiance for the lower seating area. The pool, spa, and lower catch basin of the project are finished in Ceramaquartz. The remaining 3 sides of the pool feature a lautner edge perimeter overflow system completing the modern, pristine aesthetic. The acrylic pool safety fence is attached to the downside of the infinity edge system, and provides safe ingress and egress to the lower seating area. Tempest torch fire features adorn the opposite corners of the infinity edge.
