This ridge roof (kirizuma) style tea house, which has posts partly submerged in a koi pond, is constructed with Port Orford cedar. The tearoom is 4-1/2 tatami mats or approx. 9' square. The interior includes a closet kitchen (mizuya) and an alcove for displaying art (tokonoma). The tea house is enclosed by sliding shoji doors and surrounded by a veranda (engawa).

Nestled on a serene bluff with panoramic views of the surrounding landscape, Overlook is a contemporary retreat that draws inspiration from agrarian forms and modern craftsmanship. Anchored by a striking gabled steel pavilion, the home opens fully to its environment, offering a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. ​Materials like weathered steel, wood, and board-formed concrete create a timeless palette that reflects the natural beauty of the site, while generous overhangs provide shade and shelter throughout the year. The central breezeway—framed by exposed structural elements and expansive glazing—serves as both a grand entry and an outdoor living room, inviting light, breeze, and guests deep into the heart of the home. ​Overlook balances openness and privacy, structure and softness, with spaces that are both grounded and soaring. It is a place of calm permanence—thoughtfully sited, deeply rooted, and endlessly livable.

This outdoor living space provides the perfect setting to enjoy a fire while gazing across the water. Modern Rustic Living at its best.

  Free ebook, Creating the Ideal Kitchen. DOWNLOAD NOW   Our clients and their three teenage kids had outgrown the footprint of their existing home and felt they needed some space to spread out. They came in with a couple of sets of drawings from different architects that were not quite what they were looking for, so we set out to really listen and try to provide a design that would meet their objectives given what the space could offer. We started by agreeing that a bump out was the best way to go and then decided on the size and the floor plan locations of the mudroom, powder room and butler pantry which were all part of the project. We also planned for an eat-in banquette that is neatly tucked into the corner and surrounded by windows providing a lovely spot for daily meals. The kitchen itself is L-shaped with the refrigerator and range along one wall, and the new sink along the exterior wall with a large window overlooking the backyard. A large island, with seating for five, houses a prep sink and microwave. A new opening space between the kitchen and dining room includes a butler pantry/bar in one section and a large kitchen pantry in the other. Through the door to the left of the main sink is access to the new mudroom and powder room and existing attached garage. White inset cabinets, quartzite countertops, subway tile and nickel accents provide a traditional feel. The gray island is a needed contrast to the dark wood flooring. Last but not least, professional appliances provide the tools of the trade needed to make this one hardworking kitchen.
