ARCHITECTS FOCUS
Designed to accommodate up to twenty-four people , the custom-made dining room table is a feature piece , running parallel to the kitchen island and floor-to-ceiling windows , and offering impressive views of the bay .
The main level , in sequential order from left to right , plays host to a veranda , a cloakroom , a powder room , a main living area – with the aforementioned kitchen , a dining room , a double living room , a laundry room , and the masters ’ quarters . The ground level , again in order from left to right , plays host to a lounge , a training room , a spa with a dry sauna , a whirlpool bath , and three bedrooms adjacent to two full bathrooms and a playroom .
The residence ’ s horizontal axis separates the technical and mechanical rooms from the primary living areas , allowing the occupants to take advantage of the natural light and exterior views . This design program allows guests to connect with their surrounding environment , while providing user comfort and spatial fluidity . This same axis , which follows the angles dictated by the natural topography of the site , creates a protected courtyard in which most of the outdoor activities are concentrated .
A STRUCTURAL AND SCULPTURAL PROWESS
Owing to a real structural prowess , a reinforced concrete formwork allows the swimming pool to cantilever out 16- feet . A true extension of the main level terrace , the infinity pool terminates with a glass panel that creates the illusion of the pool extending well into the lake .
The residual space between the load-bearing concrete walls serves as a mechanical room for pool systems , as well as storage space for outdoor furniture and other items .
