These pages: With so much of the home’s liveable
space outdoors and under cover, the architect
came up with a novel way to ensure a warm,
natural light on the terrace. The roof is punctuated
with square light wells with honey-coloured
translucent onyx slabs. These admit natural light
by day and are supplemented by artificial light at
night. As a playful addition, the outdoor dining
table has the same onyx embedded in its top – as
though shadows of the amber onyx are playing
across its surface.
