We built a grandiose, full-height foyer starting at floor height at the main level and extending all the way to the skylight placed on either side of the ridge beam. Meticulous structural engineering took place prior to breaking ground to ensure the home could support the exposed trusses which span thirty feet across the ceiling. Utilizing a cat-walk around the perimeter of the foyer on the second floor allowed for natural light to flood this expansive space. While height was one component that contributed to this incredible entry, the horizontal span was also extremely important. When your backyard is the Pacific Ocean, it’s crucial to highlight the view with an open floor plan from the front door clear through the meticulous sliding steel doors at the rear of the home.
