这栋别墅是位于地面上的独栋住宅，设计规划合理而简洁，是一家人进行日常活动的场所。别墅的上层楼面是一个开放的生活区域，所以光线很充足，一家人白天的大部分时间都在这里度过。卧室和浴室都在下一层，房间比例设计适度。这些生活区和卧室所在的楼层在别墅外面可以清楚的看见，就像一个位于混凝土底座上的发光的物体。别墅巨大的地基上还包括一个车库和朝向别墅后部的附加单元，别墅基座高出街道很多。

别墅的特色除了与各种各样的项目元素关系明确之外，还有一个最大的特色就是别墅内部光线条件非常好。别墅位于建筑物密集的城市地区，所以如何使阳光进入别墅便成了一个难题。别墅前后方使用的玻璃已经达到了最大的面积，但是这还是不能解决别墅的光线问题。于是在上层建筑上修建了一个倾斜的屋顶，这使朝北的天窗为上层建筑内的空间带来了均匀的照明。还修建了一个朝向别墅中央的光井，这为别墅下层建筑内的卧室和走廊带来了光线。

The program for this ground-up, single-family residence is organized in a rational manner in an attempt to create visually simple spaces serving as the backdrop to a family’s daily activities. An open living level is situated at the upper floor, allowing for maximum light at the space where most time is spent during the daytime. The bedrooms and bathrooms are located at the floor below and are kept modest in scale. These living and bedroom levels are articulated at the exterior of the building as a light mass resting above a concrete base. This massive base contains the garage and an in-law unit towards the rear of the building, and allows the upper two levels to rise above the busy street.

In addition to a clear relationship between the various program elements, bringing daylight deep into the building proved to be a driving factor in the design. Given that the building is located in a tight urban condition, this created a challenge for extending daylight into the building in a meaningful way. The amount of glass at the front and rear elevations of the building was maximized, but this did not solve the issue at hand. By creating a sloped ceiling at the upper level, this allowed the opportunity for a north-facing clerestory window that brings uniform lighting at the upper living level. A large light well towards the center of the building brings light to bathrooms and hallways below. In addition, the stair hallway carries light down to the bedroom level and entry.Finally, material selection and composition is given high priority. White plaster is selected as the exterior finish for the upper two levels to take advantage of the diffused lighting condition in the Cow Hollow neighborhood of San Francisco. This plaster is juxtaposed against a rough concrete base that indicates the utilitarian nature of the garage. The use of wood at the sloped upper ceiling brings color and variation into the main living space as light rakes across the boards from the continuous clerestory window. Wood and tiled floors are used as a simple means to bring color into the spaces. Ultimately, proportion is given careful consideration while composing each material and element in relation to one another.
