This thoughtfully composed home is anchored to its site through the use of excavated volcanic rock. The restrained material palette and purposeful planning result in a sequence of connected, elegant spaces. Upon arrival, the view is intentionally concealed, then revealed through a central stair that separates living, sleeping, and service areas. A series of fixed and sliding screens manage light, privacy, and solar gain with finesse. Outdoor terraces and courtyards extend the interior into the landscape, creating a seamless dialogue between inside and out, and a living experience shaped by material integrity and spatial clarity.
