NATURAL FLOW
Open living, dining and entertaining spaces in this contemporary Los Altos
Hills home stress easy access. European White Oak flooring and rift-cut
cabinets, in tandem with high ceilings and spacious rooms, contribute to the
airy, non-confining design motif. For the dining table, a slab of rare Yukas
wood rests on Taracea polished brass legs. TCLee Design, Cupertino
MINIMALIST
MODERN
Solving a problem that
frequently arises in areas
where wood is prone
to water damage, the design
team set the bathtub
on a ceramic platform
scored to simulate
fine grain. Trim, raised
unadorned walnut vanities
pick up the color and
grain of the tile. Maydan
