Victoria
a beach house
with bunks for the kids and a shared bathroom… not so radical
and built in bench seats and sea shells and carpet on the walls, not the floor
an upside down periscope
gidget on the tv and the beachboys on the turntable
all by the seashore
the interior of this house delivers delight and surprise
it is an unpretentious, yet comfortable coastal home
it does not suffer from overblown volumes or cold cavernous space
it has just enough
space has been judiciously metered out
heights have been moderated to focus views
rooms are warm and inviting, while finishes are utilitarian, but never boring
tactile
the interior delivers a backdrop for me to be
to house my guests
space to interact
to nurture the sole
come and go, open and close
to track the play of light and shadow and let time slipClient perspective
