Based on rigorous study of the forms and traditions of French Provençal houses, the simplicity of this large home belies the complexity of material choices, finishes, and spatial sequences. Traditional Genoise tile roof eaves, operable wood shutters, limestone fireplaces and floors, and beamed ceilings were detailed and applied to the composition of this house. Filled with comfortable rooms designed for family life, the house also provides a work area for the writer/director team. A large library and office, 'pitch' library, and private screening room were developed in a separate wing of the house.
This home has been featured in several magazines, including House Beautiful, InStyle Home, and Architectural Record.
