227 "A collage of windows artistically frames the view and sets a theatrical stage to connect the indoors with the outside." —Theresa Angelini FACING PAGE: This home is carefully sited at the opening of a wooded ravine where one of the homeowners played as a child. The two major living spaces—the living room on the upper level and the family room on the lower level—are oriented with a focused view to the ravine through a two-story window wall. The two- sided fireplace likewise creates a dialogue between the inside and out; it faces the living room on one side and the glass window wall on the other. The exterior deck cantilevers toward the ravine, providing another opportunity to experience the view—this time, as if on the prow of a ship. BELOW TOP: The kitchen offers a central anchoring point with a generous island, cooking, and desk area. White walls provide the backdrop for bold orange and blue accents. BELOW BOTTOM: The living room, dining room, and kitchen open to each other and are unified by the wood-clad open ceiling space. Colorful artwork and furnishings reinforce a joyful, radiant vibe in the home. Photographs by Jeff Garland
