From Within Residence
Big Sur, California, USA

About the project
Nestled within the lush, untamed landscape of Big Sur, “From Within” Forest Residence is a single-family house that embodies the perfect harmony between modern design and the beauty of Big Sur. This single-family home is characterized by its long, slim eaves, which extend gracefully from the roofline, creating a sense of lightness and floating above the structure.
Combining concrete and wood, the residence blends beautifully into the surroundings. The proposed design relates to the natural landscape, incorporating flexible wooden louvers that can be moved to control the amount of natural light flooding the interior spaces.
Plants and greenery also become an essential part of the general design, improving air quality, reducing background noise, and enhancing the aesthetic appeal.
