Carefully selected lighting gives the dining room a mysterious quality. The
architect designed vitrines to showcase Cara
’s collection of Steuben glass. Table by Roche Bobois; chairs from Sunset
Settings. The painting is by Mexican artist Rafael Coronel.
˚ Clients can access Cara’s studio (on right) through a separate entrance without having to go through the
house. But the studio is also connected by guest quarters that lie along the
north side of the site, creating a U-shaped dwelling. Examples of Cara
’s work, wonderfully organic in nature, line the wall of her studio. ˚ Horizontal windows above
cabinets provide natural sunlight to this spacious kitchen. Long, narrow island
in center of kitchen gives owner plenty of work space.
˚ A pair of Bertoia bird chairs provides seating on an interior balcony leading to
Jorge
’s study. The
balcony has a perfect view of the treetops in Memorial Park.
