COMPLETED IN 2008

Embodying the luxury of tropical resort living alongside the comfort of a modern family home, this gorgeous Asian-inspired design is awash with lavish features, including a most beautiful pool. The landscaping surrounding the home forms a secluded retreat and sets the tone for the house.

THE CONCEPT

Surrounded by a simple
Asian garden that creates
a subtle sense of eastern mysticism,
this house arises as a tribute
to Japanese design with
a sleek modern edge.
