“After taking the time to understand and appreciate the power of the views, the clients decided on a strong yet simple form for the massing,” Rothwell said. “Which was essentially a direct response to the views, all coupled with a site-driven expression of natural materials.”
Kebony was specifically chosen for its natural wood texture and rich brown color that will naturally develop a silver-grey patina, minimizing maintenance without further use of finish treatment.
“The idea was strength in form, calm in approach, and natural in finish,” Rothwell said.
