The existing structure on the property was reenvisioned to act as a guest house. The existing main entrance was switched to create more privacy for the bedrooms, allowing for a re-organization of the house. A large double-height cathedral space is lined with rooms on either side – towards the South side the entrance, kitchen, and staircase, and on the North side the bedrooms. Through large glass facades on the East and West of the double-height space, the house is visually connected with its surroundings – a true meditative space.
