VISUALIZATION:  Viksel Studio

Designed to blend seamlessly into its steep hillside site, this modern home remains nearly invisible from the road while embracing expansive valley views. The home is carefully positioned around a 100-year-old oak tree, preserving the landscape while maximizing natural light and openness.

With parking, the garage, and driveway located on the roof, the entry sequence flows downward through a three-stop elevator and an open central atrium that brings light to the lowest level. Large glass openings and outdoor terraces connect the interiors to the surrounding environment, while warm wood, natural stone, and steel create a refined yet grounded aesthetic.

Designed for a multi-generational family, the home balances shared gathering spaces with private retreats. Sustainability is integral, with passive cooling, high-performance glazing, and thoughtful orientation reducing environmental impact. A modern retreat deeply connected to its site, this residence embodies the harmony of architecture and nature.
