Nestled in the backyard of their daughter’s property, these retired physicians embarked on an exciting journey to create their dream dwelling, a sanctuary that would not only accommodate their changing needs but foster multigenerational living.
Inspired by their extensive travels throughout Asia and Africa, where generations of families coexisted harmoniously under one roof, they set out to build a home that would serve as a haven for their present and future – providing care for their three-year-old grandchild today and receiving reciprocated support in their later years.
With an emphasis on modern aesthetics, the design of the home seamlessly blends sleek lines with functionality, embracing the couple’s desire for a light, bright, and low-maintenance living space. A unique design feature of this home is the recessed patio — a testament to the beauty that can come out of knowing what is important to you. What could have been a den is now a light well that allows for year-round gathering and gardening.
