这个简单的L形建筑已经是一处隐秘的房产，既有玄武岩的产权墙，又有成熟的棕榈树，它有一个坚实的前墙面和一个安静的庭院，供游泳和玩耍之用，加强了隐私。微风把居民拉进了入口，在压缩和集中海风的瞬间。当你提升到上层时，开阔的生活空间会无缝地延伸到户外，有广阔的开口，提供一种在手掌内漂浮的感觉。广袤的海洋和内陆的景色可以俯瞰群山。

Already a secluded property with existing basalt rock property walls and mature palm trees, the simple L-shaped form reinforces privacy with a solid front façade and cap­tures a quiet yard for swimming and play. The breezeway pulls inhabitants into the front entrance portal in a moment of compression and concentrated ocean breezes. When you ascend up to the upper level, the open living spaces extend seamlessly to the outdoors with wide openings that provide a sense of floating within the Palms. The wide expanses provide panoramic views of ocean and inland towards the mountains.

当地制造的滑动玻璃门完全包入木质面板，未破损的天花板平面向外吸引你的眼睛。没有使用机械系统来加热或冷却房屋。相反，盛行的贸易风、吊扇、操纵式玻璃窗和每个门的百叶窗式变速器允许空气在整个房屋中自由流动。稍纵即逝的微风通过庭院吸引微风，同时也把视线转向海洋。深度悬伸为人行道和Lanai提供了覆盖。6kW光伏系统可满足电气需求，同时独立的太阳能热水系统加热游泳池和SPA。浅色和耐用的水泥灰泥和瓷砖能够抵抗海洋盐的腐蚀作用，并反映热带太阳的强烈热量。

Locally fabricated sliding glass doors pocket fully into wood paneled walls and the unbroken ceiling plane draws your eye outward. No mechanical systems were utilized for heating or cooling the house. Instead, prevailing trade winds, ceiling fans, oper­able glazing and louvered transoms at each door allow air to flow freely throughout house. The slightly canted breezeway draws breezes through the courtyard while also framing the view to ocean. Deep overhangs provide coverage for the walkways and Lanai’s. A 6kw PV system provides for electrical needs while an independent solar hot water system heats the pool and spa. Light colored and durable cementitious stucco and porcelain tile resist the corrosive effects of the ocean salts and reflect the intense heat of the tropical sun.
