FACING PAGE & BELOW: My clients imagined a ring-shaped house with a central courtyard overlooking the hills and valleys
beyond their property in Silicon Valley, California. At the entry foyer mirrors triplicate the floor's marble pattern, creating a full-circle
design while also reflecting the views of the adjacent hillside. Wood paneling at doorways denotes the transition from space to
space, and scalloped vaulted ceilings emphasize the ring effect of the design.
