Willows Residence

A coastal bayside retreat balancing openness and privacy. Designed with natural recycled timbers, it embraces a coastal lifestyle while maintaining a warm, sustainable connection to its surroundings.

Facing west, the home incorporates minimal glazing to reduce heat gain, with large timber fins acting as shading devices to protect the interior from the harsh afternoon sun. This thoughtful design approach enhances both comfort and energy efficiency, while maintaining the connection to the outdoors.

To further enhance comfort and energy efficiency, the landscaping design incorporates native and drought-tolerant plantings to provide shade and cooling, along with hardscape elements that diffuse heat. This thoughtful integration ensures the outdoor spaces complement the interior, creating a cohesive and sustainable living environment.
