House for family on rocky woodland site takes advantage of south light and views into the forest and off to distant hills. Owners are couple of high level violinists who will use the house for both practice and performance, as well as the domestic issues of bringing up their three young children. The enter of the living area of the house is a two floor gathering area for casual musical and social events with easy access to living, dining and kitchen areas as well as outdoor decks.
This same area also opens up as a transparent 'pathway' through the house funneling in from the north entry side, through the interior to the south side overlooking the descending landscapes.
