overlooking the majesty of the blue Pacific,this year-round beachfront residence is amodern tribute to form following function.Every design element of this luxuriouslysophisticated home celebrates its oceanfrontlocation by blurring the distinction betweenthe indoors and out. An open floor planhighlighted by an abundance of glassinfuses the living spaces with light and playsto powerful ocean vistas. Whitewater, deepwater and coastline views showcase an ever-changing variety of subjects includingplayful dolphins, migrating whales; andbrilliant sunsets.

A stunning juxtaposition of modern archi-tectural design against the splendor andantiquity of a cerulean sea has produced ahaven of serenity that is in perfect harmonywith its pristine setting. In keeping with itsmodern sensibility, the home has pure andclean lines.

The sleek aesthetic of this modern master-piece is warmed with rich textures andmaterials that include mahogany, cherry,travertine, and limestone. Other fineelements suggest the soothing properties ofwater such as custom glass tiles, frostedglass and smooth hardware. While each ofthese elements has been selected for beautyand function, each lends a quiet sense ofluxury that fittingly pays homage to the sea.Throughout the home, the palette of softcolors and rich textures are reminiscent ofsand, seawater, sun-bleached shells, rocks,driftwood, and magnificent sailing vessels.

Soaking up the spectacular water views, themain living space is anchored by a spaciousliving room that flows in one direction tothe library and in the other direction to thedining room. While the deep blue sea takescenter stage, affection runs high for the lushcreek side setting which graces the northernexposure of the home.
