WHAT OUR
CLIENT SAID
“
We interviewed a number of
architects who came up with the same
uniform approach of designing
a big ‘blah’ everyday custom house
on our hilly, nontraditional plot.
The ORR Design team is very passionate
about design and architecture and
truly wants each house to have its
own unique design and individuality
that suits the owner, their lifestyle,
and their surroundings. They spent
a lot of time getting to know us, and
encouraged boundaries to be pushed
and explored, but respected our
choices. Our entire project is beautiful
from every angle, inside and out. The
interiors and exterior and landscape
blend together seamlessly — we love
living here.

About this project
This transitional ranch styled home’s relaxed beauty hides a design and technology fusion.
The sloping site with mature trees inspired a below-grade garage that allows connected
interior/exterior spaces on all sides of the home. A rear courtyard with pool, cabana and
covered fireplace patio are connected the the main house with bluestone tile pavers. Interior
floors are warmed by tubing with solar heated water. Building materials and methods of
construction were green-sourced, recycled, environmentally healthy earning the project the
highest LEED Platinum certification honor.
