It’s an exquisite example of balancing one’s love for splendor with that of one’s love for nature. Outside it blends in with it’s natural surrounding…inside it embraces you and beckons you to stay, blend in, and just enjoy. Talk about disconnecting from the maddening world, each time I visit, the feeling’s the same and all you can do is say aah!
I’m in LOVE!!! Well done everyone involved in this project!! Been looking for the floor plans but the online backdated shop doesn’t have Sept 2010. Any ideas where I can look at this?
