Cabin Carmel

Within an oak-studded postage stamp lot in Carmel-by-the-Sea, this modern family cabin maintains a cozy composure while finding expansiveness in highly integrated indoor-outdoor spaces. Multiple layers of built and plant form help to blur the property boundaries. Strategically placed trees, hedging, low walls, and fencing maximize a sense of privacy and spaciousness. Subdued materials, such as board form concrete and vertical timbers, provide balance with the richly textured oaks, pines, and cypress that ring the property.
