It boasts a [giant dome-shaped bookshelf](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/belalu-dome-villa) on the ceiling of an office, showing that no area is off limits in living spaces. Designed by Washington-based Travis Price Architects for the multi-talented anthropologist, ethnobotanist, author and photographer, the Wade Davis Writing Studio is a space full of knowledge and drenched in natural lighting.
