The house ’ s two full floors and basement are expansive and allow for multiple rooms and areas . The ground floor encompasses a large music room / library , formal living room , family room , kitchen and breakfast room , mudroom , and sizable master bedroom suite with a private outdoor garden . The second floor incorporates four large bedrooms , two bathrooms , an exercise room , playroom , and large roof deck with an outdoor fireplace .
We seized the opportunity to use state-ofthe-art materials in the construction of the house . It ’ s clad in a commercial material , Cembonit , which hangs off the structure , providing a rain screen while allowing the exterior composition to breathe . The back of the house is mainly glass , with a louvered screen to protect the interior from too much sunlight . There is also a massive shading system integrated into the ceilings of every room : recessed roller shades operate on a smart home system .
Inside , the home is furnished in a comfortable palette of bright colors mixed with neutrals . Outside , at the far end of the pool area a freestanding screen conceals an outdoor shower and barbeque , complete with a portal , so that whomever is at the grill can engage with the family poolside .
