"Architecture is the thoughtful making of space. I believe in designs that respond to their context, celebrate natural light, and honor materials in their purest forms. Each project begins with listening - to the site, to the client, to the unspoken needs that shape our living environments. The result should feel inevitable, as if it couldn't exist any other way."
— Michael Allan Eldridge
The challenge was to create a home that would feel suspended between ocean and sky, anchored to a dramatic coastal cliff without dominating the landscape.
A response to the need for privacy and greenery in a dense urban context, this home turns inward around a central courtyard that brings light and nature into every space.
