Sited several hundred feel from the beach and closely surrounded by neighboring dwellings, this house develops a complex play of volumes on the street side to the south, taking advantage of the generous sunlight and greater privacy, forming a deeply shadowed and elegantly proportioned entry facade. At the right lower corner a vertical, recessed volume reaches from the ground at the carport to the setback dining-room window above, matching the two-story volume carved in I the upper left corner, housing the porch and overlooked by the studio-bedroom at the top. A central stair with walls of glass block rises through the house and culminalcs in a small observation deck recessed into the roof, with views above the surrounding forest. Ground-floor children‘s bedrooms mav be accessed directly from the yard for bathers returning from the nearby beach. The second (loor houses the porch, living room, kitchen, and dining room, all of which look out through the overlapping double-height volumes to the south. The third floor is L-shaped in plan, the two bedrooms wrapping around the upper volume of the porch. The light and shaded views provided by the .southern facade allow the other three elevations to have only small windows, maintaining a surprising degree of privacy for the occupants.
