The design of this home is really interesting in that it serves a few different purposes as well as works for a couple who wanted different things in a home. It was build from two separate homes that paralleled each other, and the home was designed with an urban look that keeps a modern feel but it sits up a on a hill that faces into a valley. The couple wanted to have an urban feel to the home while maintaining the intimacy of being outside of a large city. many of the rooms in the home allow for privacy, but they all come together in the center nuclei of the home to allow for people to come together. Not only was this home built for its looks but it also was carefully thought out so it would have functionality to it as well. It is a very efficient home  due to the design allowing for natural sunlight to come and the layout allows for ventilation throughout the home.
