Bonsai Modern
Architecture Overview
Most noticeable of this house is the low-pitched roof with 4’-0” deck surrounding the house. Dubbed the “glass house” by our staff, the skylights bring the light in through the roof while the decks stay shaded from the sun. There are clerestory windows in the interior walls in order to gather all the sunlight throughout the entire house. Upon entering the house, the right side is completely open from the living room, dining, kitchen, lounge. Then the primary suite is in the corner off the lounge area then the two bedrooms sister the common bathroom.
There is a full set of stairs to the basement which can be finished to any amount of square footage that you desire. There is a 16’ slider off the walkout that could move to any other wall in the basement.
Behind the Name: Bonsai have long been respected in the ancient art of Feng Shui for their ability to draw life energies into a room, sharing them gladly with all who pass through. This house was designed with modern Japanese inspiration taking maximum advantage of sunlight and energy flow.
