The remodeled forecourt also provides
a strong sense of arrival. The design team
created a highly symmetrical entry to the
house, over a linear pond. The facade
incorporates a substantial beam that
crosses in front of the house. The space
between the beam and the building has
the same dimensions as the pond, which
brings sunlight right down to the water.
“We introduced a fully glazed entry, so
there is a direct sightline to the view, right
through the house and out across the pool
terrace on the other side,” says Mut.
