If the name of the game is “wood” then this mansion is definitely winning. Perched on a hilltop with breathtaking views, the house makes excellent use of its design to capture the natural beauty of its surroundings. Instead of fighting with nature, the home feels like an extension of it due to the smart and extensive use of wood. It’s a truly remarkable home.
Speaking of nature, it’s the outdoor space of this house that brings it all together. A large, central courtyard defines the structure of the home. It has a pool on a lower level that connects to another portion of the house. This central area is perfect for lounging and entertaining. It also gives a great view of the home’s design due to the large, airy glass windows and doors that are found along the exterior walls of the home. Indoor/outdoor space blends together seamlessly. This seamless transition is aided by the use of natural wood in nearly every aspect of the design.
What is truly special about this home is the fact that it uses several different types of wood in its design. Many similar homes would choose a single type of wood and pull that style throughout. That is not the case here. Not only does this mansion feature different types of wood, it also features different plank sizes, different cuts, and different orientations. This gives each section of the home a unique feel while still maintaining a cohesive style. For instance, the den uses a warmer tone of wood to create a cozier atmosphere while the art studio is made brighter with a lighter tone of wood. It all looks truly amazing.
With amazing views, plenty of natural light, an airy modern design, and incredible use of wood, this mansion is a cut above the rest. Take a look at all the photos in the article below!
