FASHIONABLE ENTRANCE
Constructed from flat-sawn white oak and inspired by textile fabrics and high-heel
shoe shapes, this customized entry door makes a bold fashion statement. In the Palo
Alto home owned by a former model, the Brazilian walnut wall, ceiling, siding and
decking that surround the door all provide a contrasting, weather-resistant backdrop
to showcase its unique haute couture design. Acadia Architecture, Los Gatos
FLOATING SPA
A honed slate slab extends out from the wall above
fir-veneer drawers with no visible support from below.
That same levitating motif holds sway throughout
this master bathroom, whose hardwood birch floor
sits complements the six-foot brushed steel tub. Bruck
Rainbow vanity lights and sea-green glass tile insets
add lustrous accents. Guy Ayers, Los Altos Hills
