Creating the modern equivalent of the traditional courtyard house, the new design is centered on a large skylight over the living and dining rooms.

A flexible and multi-functional space is facilitated by large pocket doors, steel plate blinders that hide the kitchen and concealed equipment that pivots out for use.
