Lush landscaping frames the home's grand façade, complementing its striking architecture and expansive windows. In the back, an infinity pool stretches toward the 9th fairway, seamlessly blending into the landscape for a truly immersive view.

The home's aesthetic is a masterful balance of organic textures, earthy tones, and bespoke craftsmanship, creating an atmosphere that feels both elevated and inviting. This thoughtful design is immediately evident in the entryway, where a striking 10’ Caralarga artwork, handcrafted from raw cotton thread, serves as a bold yet serene focal point. Flanked by sculptural sconces and a sideboard made from salvaged Mexican ash and European ash burl, the space is a true reflection of artistry and intention. A handwoven rug in warm, neutral tones grounds the design, while carefully curated decor—ceramic vessels, dried botanicals, and antique brass accents—enhances the home’s natural beauty.
