The core philosophy revolves around creating an outdoor “room” that feels as structurally articulated as an interior. The spatial planning logic uses a massive, dark-slatted pergola to define the primary social zones—a formal dining area and a deep-seated lounge—while leaving the lawn and tiled viewing deck open to the sky. The emotional atmosphere is one of high-contrast warmth; the amber tones of the herringbone wood are balanced by the cool gray of the stone-cladding and the sharp, industrial lines of the black steel. Interaction between light and material is central, with integrated ceiling strips and glowing bollards creating a geometric nighttime signature. This project is distinct for its architectural boundary-play, using low-profile hedges and glass to maintain views while ensuring the 1650 ft² space feels private and enclosed.
