This approximately 14,000-square-foot custom residence in Atherton was designed for a young family of four, blending modern luxury with a sense of calm and connection to nature. The home features an extensive suite of amenities, including a wellness area and spa, home theater, billiards room, wine cellar, and a showcase garage for the client’s car collection.

The residence offers five bedrooms, six bathrooms, a private guest suite, and three distinct courtyards that bring light and landscape deep into the interior spaces. Thoughtfully integrated into a challenging site, the design preserves a majestic 100-year-old oak tree as a central focal point. The grounds include a pool, multiple outdoor lounging areas, and a detached guest house, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor living experience.

Rooted in an ongoing dialogue with the clients, the design reflects their vision for a modern yet tranquil retreat and an enduring home that will grow with their family for years to come.
