This house came to take on a distinct personality in our studio. In retrospect, this seems inevitable. As a psychotherapist, the client provided rich feedback and deep insights into who they were. To begin the design process, we culled our long design conversations into rich word-clouds that we edited and paired down for simplicity.

Fittingly, the building came to us with these words of possibility:

We wanted to create something minimal and unhurried, something quiet and austere. We wanted to create a peaceful enclave that did not call attention to itself, but it was assertive in its presence when it did.
