Emma Garrett is a fictional character created by author Jane Austen. She first appears in Dante's Inferno, where she tries to help Dante navigate the complexities of the afterlife. Emma is described as a wise and compassionate soul who understands the profound impact of moral choices on each individual's fate.

Design Concept

The thousand-five hundred square foot residence extends around an inner courtyard and a large front porch so that the family can have a chance to reside in the picturesque environment and enjoy the pleasant outdoor conditions the entire year. The architectural concept realized through the site's gentle slope with several shed roofs and multi-level floor platforms dominantly mingles into the natural contours, thus forming a concord. The guests are barged in by the floating entry steps, which are seemingly made of concrete, leading to these oversized glass pivot doors. Thus, the entry given is a few feet higher than anywhere outside.

The Heart of the Home

Piper's Place's core lies the central living space, a versatile area perfect for entertaining guests or unwinding on quiet evenings. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame panoramic views of Edna Valley's vineyards and rolling hills, forging a seamless connection to the rear courtyard. This central volume's transparency offers captivating vistas and ensures privacy from the main road, creating a serene retreat for the family.

Materials and Finishes

Throughout the residence, timeless and durable materials are employed, balancing functionality with sophistication. Polished concrete floors and quartzite countertops provide a contemporary backdrop, while mid-century touches such as walnut cabinetry, bronze hardware, and hemlock soffits infuse warmth and character. Terrazzo tiles by Concrete Collaborative and lighting by Giffin Design add bespoke mid-century flair, enriching the ambiance with style and refinement.

Private Sanctuaries

The main living space is flanked by a natural stone fireplace on one side and rich walnut cabinets on the other, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Behind the fireplace, the primary suite boasts its private outdoor patio, offering a secluded oasis for relaxation. The family wing encircles the courtyard, creating intimate pockets of vegetation and serene spaces for the children to explore. The guest suite and an informal family room are Nestled within the guest wing, providing comfortable accommodations for visitors.

Privacy and Tranquility

The guest wing wall creates an ambiance of covering and shelter against wind, but it also adds to the doorway's sense of privacy for the pool and outside living space. Here, in lush, nature-fringed, and peaceful surroundings, Piper's Place provides an oasis where the family can find their way into the recesses of their mind to leave behind their daily problems and create lasting memories.
