If Leonardo da Vinci and Philip Johnson decided to build a house with their own hands (and they won a cement mixer in a poker game)... In the wake of the infamous Four Mile fire, our client asked us to create an iconic, original and livable home.

And lastly one that reached out into the landscape and created a base for indoor/outdoor living.
