WATERFRONT HOUSE

Perched on the Cabo San Lucas coastline, added elevation on the first level of this beach house accounts for predicted rising sea levels, and provides uninterrupted views. 

The design emphasizes the present views of the site allowing each space to take advantage of the unique qualities of the oceanfront home while natural light courses throughout each level. Sitting over 32ft above sea level, tiered terraces frame two stacked volumes with vertical exterior fins to create structural depth. Raised windows and ceilings expand the space and frame the beach views, while a combined double height kitchen, dining and living room create an open floor plan. The entryway focuses on a tall, inviting space that opens up into the larger main floor’s vast views and outdoor covered living quarters. A bridge spans over the entry to connect private spaces on the second level. Natural light carries through the second floor to create an airier, alluring home that extends well beyond the beach below.
