The Sugar Shack Residence is nestled between a dramatically steep ravine and a more sedate, manicured outdoor pool and garden, its form gently bending to reconcile these contrasting landscapes. This site-driven gesture organizes the interiors along a linear spine, with rooms unfolding in sequence. At the bend, a breakfast nook is framed by a niche clad in rich blue velvet, its intimacy enhanced by a delicate pendant light and an iconic Eero Saarinen table. Adjacent, the open living area draws daylight deep into the home, with glazing thoughtfully oriented to maximize natural light while shielding views of neighboring properties.

A continuous ceiling plane unifies the interiors, while material contrasts—clear-sealed steel, white oak, and raw concrete—establish a restrained yet tactile palette. This rigorous approach draws the eye not only to the home’s refined materiality and architectural detailing but also to the two distinct landscapes it embraces.
