The program consists of a detached Guest House with full Kitchen, Living and Dining amenities, Carport and Office Building with attached Main house and Master Bedroom wing. The arrangement of buildings was dictated by the numerous majestic oaks and organized as a procession of spaces leading from the Entry arbor up to the front door. Large covered terraces and arbors were used to extend the interior living spaces out onto the site. All the buildings are clad in Texas limestone with accent bands of Leuders limestone to mimic the local limestone cliffs in the area. Steel was used on the arbors and fences and left to rust. Vertical grain Douglas fir was used on the interior while flagstone and stained concrete floors were used throughout. The flagstone floors extend from the exterior entry arbors into the interior of the Main Living space and out onto the Main house terraces.

Av Elva Sol designed a landscape to respect the strict water usage of California, as well as creating usable space for kids. Artificial turf fools passers-by and adds luxurious green. Breezy grasses and native flowers add movement and color. Copper mailbox and succulent planter sit atop a custom-built redwood post with dove-tail joinery, bringing the style of the house and land all the way to the street.

This exuberant garden contains all the elements needed for a Wildlife habitat: water and food sources, cover for wildlife and places where they can raise their young. It is a sustainable garden environment that conserves and collects water and contains only non-invasive Calilfornia native and climate appropriate plants without using chemical pesticides or fertilizers.
