Now, he points out, the house flows effortlessly from front to
back, indoors to out, directing the eye towards the exterior and
that vision of sky and water. Its mission is supported by a simple
and unfussy palette. "The materials — concrete floors, stucco
exterior, roof panels created from Rhinezink, a 100% recyclable
material, teak, Calcutta stone, white glass and walnut cabinets
— felt appropriate near the water," he explains. "We didn't want
to detract from the setting or the view with anything overly fussy."
This directive extends to the furniture. EYRC worked with Debbie
Minchenberg Design to choose simple, clean-lined pieces in
strong and straightforward shapes with minimal color that under-
line the home's focus.
The client is thrilled with the result. "She says she looks forward
to getting home each day to see the sunset. The fact that she
never tires of spending that magical part of the day, in what
she considers the perfect setting to enjoy it, really means a lot
to us," says Yanai. "In whatever EYRC undertakes, we always
find a strong connection to the landscape, to nature and to the
views. We celebrate the materials. But mostly, we celebrate the
people." After a moment, he adds, "Design is as simple as is
appropriate — but no simpler." It's a puzzle that EYRC always
solves with elegance.
