The tranquility starts as soon as you enter the front gates, the meandering drive leads to an opening on the landscape with Contemplation House sitting beautifully on the ridge overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Expansive single storey home stretching across the site creating a mix of private and social spaces. The design consists of 3 wings which come together to form a central informal living space which flows out onto the large central courtyard.
