Designed to utilize every available square inch of an unusual plot,
the house has become a true oasis for its inhabitants.
Continuing with this flow between inside
and out, the main floor — with the primary
living spaces and garage — gives direct
access, thanks to sliding pocket doors, to
a terrace garden on one side and a deck
on the other. Upstairs is home to the home-
owner's suite and children's bedrooms with
skylights and picture windows.
"A courtyard plan would have been ideal
had the site been larger, however, we were
able to achieve something similar through
the use of site walls, fences, hedges and
a water feature, which together define a
peaceful, private outdoor space adjacent
to the living spaces," says Herrin.
Dovetail General Contractors were the
builders, Ohashi Landscape Services
were the landscape architecture and
Inform Interiors took on the interior furnish-
ings for this project that gives the feeling
of being a sanctuary.
