Dogleg House

Seven structures form the house on this long, narrow site shaped like a dog's leg.

The property is entered from the east through the auto courtyard. From there, visitors walk across the central garden, which is formed from four surrounding guest pavilions; into the cruciform-shaped main living pavilion, which has the kitchen, living room, and dining room; and through to a wide lawn with elliptical swimming pool, thatched-roof pool pavilion, and views to the ocean beyond.

The living and sleeping quarters are open on all sides, with retractable walls that incorporate layers of glass, insect screen, and louvers. Floors are of black Chinese slate, door and window frames are teak, and ceilings are Western red cedar. Exterior walls are integral-colored, steel-troweled stucco.

The main living pavilion has a strong outdoor connection via 28-foot-wide doors that open on either side to both the central garden and the swimming pool. The entire volume of the roof is expressed in the interior as a delicately detailed shell of cedar. The open kitchen and public living areas are illuminated by prominent hand-blown glass light fixtures.
