Designed by Architect Omar Arbel, this stunning 23.2 House creates a wonderful narrative that starts with a pile of huge salvaged Douglas fir beams. The house opens to the landscape, mixing the outdoors with the indoors. The result is a beautiful home that made the short list for this year’s World Architecture Festival’s recognized homes.

The home features a very rich collection of materials and shapes from the core of the house deep into the landscape. The large timbers allow for wide open spans in which large doors lead to the outside patio. The living room and kitchen open up at either end completely to the adjacent patio effectively extending the interior fully to the outside. The glass sliding doors still allows light and heat in the cooler months.

The home’s aesthetic is one of growth and dilation, beginning with the reclaimed beams of various lengths which create a triangular roof system. The massiveness of the structural elements is counterpointed by the airy openings and playful out of square walls and open floor plan.
