The house is two long volumes of glass and board-formed concrete, stepped down the slope so that every principal room faces the water. The upper level holds the living spaces beneath a cantilevered cedar soffit; the bedrooms sit below, sheltered by the hill.
Salt, wind and fog shaped every material decision. Frames are marine-grade bronze, decks are ipe laid on stainless clips, and the pool edge is honed local granite that weathers rather than stains.
