Quietly composed.

Full residence

A measured composition, drawn from the street.

Long horizontal rooflines anchor the house while stone, blackened metal and warm timber establish a calm, exact rhythm.

  2. 02 / Driveway and garage

    Arrival begins with a generous threshold.

    A broad paved approach leads to the integrated garage, softened at its edges by grasses, low planting and pools of warm light.

  3. 03 / Main entrance

    The entrance is warm, sheltered and unmistakable.

    Vertical cedar fins frame a recessed timber door, creating privacy and texture beneath the deep overhanging canopy.

  4. 04 / Façade details

    Three materials, one disciplined language.

    Coursed limestone, fine timber battens and dark panel cladding meet along precise lines, balancing permanence with warmth.

  5. 05 / Upper floor and windows

    Light is framed across the upper level.

    Deep eaves temper the glass while asymmetric window groups give each room a distinct outlook and preserve the façade's quiet order.

  6. 06 / Landscape and overview

    Architecture settles into a restrained garden.

    Layered hedges, ornamental grasses and specimen trees complete the elevation, giving the crisp geometry a softer foreground.

Cedar House / Exterior

Built to feel settled.

A restrained palette and clear geometry give the residence permanence, while timber, planting and carefully placed light keep its street presence warm and human.
