The pool deck, like the home itself, is orientated southbound
to manage light and temperature around the year—and maxi-
mize the beauty of natural light from morning until sunset, and
through quiet nights under starry coastal skies. The surrounding
hardscape is pleasingly flat and ample, serving as an extension
of the home itself, complete with slender overhanging eaves.
This is where you can lounge under old-growth trees, dine year
round or let children play under the watchful eyes of parents
located indoors, where floor-to-ceiling glass is a central compo-
nent. The home's ample sliding doors are also key to plentiful
views and instant access to the outdoors, as well as a way to
invite mountain breezes through the home.
The home's roofline—a dramatic mix of horizontal and barrel-
shaped—produces its distinctive silhouette. It also shuttles in
additional sunlight and adds visual texture to key public spaces,
like the glamorous living room replete with glass, front-row views
and a chrome-framed fireplace. "The arched ceilings and roof-
lines," points out Adlam, "along with one-of-kind features, like
the circular bar in the living room, are part of what makes this
home noteworthy." A graceful barrel-vaulted ceiling is also on
display in a fireplaced family room located across the pool deck,
which could also serve as a standalone playroom or sunlit studio.
