This design creates a functional open living/dining/kitchen and media area for both entertaining and working. The dining and kitchen area needed to be expandable for family gatherings. The various vaulted ceilings maximize daylight and were wrapped in clear cedar to give warmth and further define the many unusual ceiling angles. Reclaimed Australian Chestnut flooring was chosen for its warmth, while Dark Sapele at the kitchen cabinets provides a sharp contrast to the white stone counters.
