It is a family home with four bedrooms set on a steep slope on the front and back side of the property. The architects transform the space in reflection to the site to form a cohesive design that blends in with its surroundings. The residence has a tall structure with a purposefully celebration of the towering trees lining the hillside. The exterior is complete with grey cladding and diamond-shaped tiles wrapped around the entire building. This features the garage and roof as well to really create a balanced and [sculptural form](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/a-house-with-an-inverted-roof). The design maximizes light to feature strategic setbacks and angular cuts along the facade.
