This, the second home Steve has renovated to suit them perfectly, is, itself an expression of their love for casting new dreams and watching as they emerge.

It also honors their love for seeing their now-teenaged children grow and change, with its once smaller, now grander spaces, and its sometimes curved, sometimes hard-edged lines.

More than all these, it reflects beautifully, their love for inviting you into relationship, and building connection. From your very first step through the entry arch, it wastes no time nestling you into it’s surprisingly private courtyard, then drawing you into its fireside dining room, and inviting you deeper. There, every line – every one – points to the place of greatest connection… the sometimes-inside, sometimes-outside spaces where warm evening conversation flows over into the long hours of the night, and new depth in relationship is forged.
