RETROSPECT

Located on a gently sloping knoll surrounded by twenty acres of Pinot Noir vineyards, this new Sonoma County Home by Swatt | Miers has been designed to provide casual indoor-outdoor living spaces that take full advantage of the magnificent wine-country site. In plan, the house is an elongated ‘T’, creating a relatively opaque and private entry courtyard on the north side. In contrast, the south side of the house is all glass, including large sliding glass doors that open the interior spaces to an expansive swimming pool terrace overlooking the vineyards below. A deep, floating roof spans over the main house and a glass guesthouse, creating an outdoor kitchen and dining terrace with dramatic pool and vineyard views on two sides.
